After his departure from FC Barcelona, Lionel Messi and his family found themselves in need of moving to Paris after more than a decade in Barcelona. After two years in France, he has transcended the figure that the Argentine leaves to pay for the education of his three children in an exclusive American school.
The Univisión network was in charge of disseminating the information collected of this prestigious educational center that is governed under an American curriculum despite being in the city of love.
The American School of Paris, the school attended by the three children of the South American star, highlights on its website that it has around 800 students from 64 countries at all levels (ranging from pre-kindergarten to grade 12). .
Likewise, the campus boasts of offering more than 60 extracurricular activities from entrepreneurship to artistic subjects. The monthly cost is $1,481 dollars per student. A figure that in the case of Messi is close to $4,500 dollars having to pay for Mateo, Thiago and Ciro. Per year, Lionel disburses a figure close to $54,000 for the children’s education.
However, the amount may vary once the students are admitted. Tuition fees range from $20,7000 dollars to $38,671 dollars annually, depending on the grade they are studying.
In September 2021, Antonela Roccuzzo uploaded a photo to her official Instagram account where the three young people are seen in the school facilities on their last day of school. “Last day of school of the week. How proud to see with how much enthusiasm and desire they started in a new school. How much we learn from you,” she wrote.
This educational center is located in the metropolitan area of the French capital. In an interview for the renowned ESPN chain, Messi confessed that among his preferences was that his children attend “a little school with friends”, instead of one linked to a sports club.
