Lycée Polyvalent Rosa Parks - La Roche sur Yon

What Lycée Polyvalent Rosa Parks - La Roche sur Yon does

Lycée Polyvalent Rosa Parks is a public French secondary school (lycée polyvalent) located in La Roche-sur-Yon, Vendée, in the Pays de la Loire region, operating under the French Ministry of National Education via the Académie de Nantes. The school delivers the full spectrum of French secondary education pathways within a single campus: general education (Seconde/Première/Terminale GT), technological baccalaureates (STI2D), professional baccalaureates (Transport Routier, Bois, Numérique, Bâtiment, Mécanique), CAP certificates (Menuiserie, Peinture, Maçonnerie), and BTS higher technical diplomas (notably BTS CRSA in Conception et Réalisation de Systèmes Automatiques). The institution also operates a boarding school (internat), a 3ème Prépa Métiers program, ULIS Pro inclusive education, and shares continuing-education reach through the GRETA-CFA de Vendée network.

The school is funded exclusively by the French government; no tuition is charged to students, and there is no commercial revenue stream. Its primary technology footprint is the institutional e-lyco website and internal digital tools, with no public-facing API, no AI/ML products, and no proprietary software platform. The deeper investment-grade thesis focuses on its programmatic depth and extracurricular ecosystem: Radio Rosa (student radio), the Labo Rosamaths (mathematics lab), the Maison des Lycéens (student center), the Association Sportive (UNSS), an artothèque (Le Tondo), and a theater program. The school has built an unusually broad international mobility footprint through Erasmus+, with active partnerships across Finland (Salpaus), Sweden (Dalbacken), Turkey (Özel Çerkezköy OSB), Bulgaria (Nikola Vasiliadi), the Netherlands (RISS Rotterdam), Ireland, Austria, and Italy, earning a double "Bonne Pratique" label from the Erasmus+ France Agency in 2024. Local workforce integration is managed through the Bureau des Entreprises, with active partnerships with France Travail and ~18 regional employers for BAC PRO internship placement and interview simulation.
