Le Lycée Razi Culture
Le Lycée Razi, a private school, was created by the Mission Laïque Française with the mission to share French culture around the world and create an international alliance between its students around the world and to sensitize students to international issues. This mission has created many schools around the world, including in the United States two of them in Texas for example. The Mission Laïque Française's curriculum is recognized officially by the French Government, and the high school final tests for the Baccalauréat diplomas were sent to France to be graded with the approval for the diploma coming from one of the French departments (believed to be Rhône-Alpes) and diplomas were issued in France (or the French Embassy -to be verified-).
Although the Lycée Razi stands for Razi High School, the system started with preschool going on to kindergarten, then, elementary, middle and high school.
The Lycée Razi school was both for boys and girls mixed in classes which was different from other schools in Iran. This environment created and nurtured an understanding, and learning between both sexes as well as better communication, and cooperation skills, allowing for equality. The girls and young women were not covering their faces or hair.
