Lycee is the French word for High School, and it is used in Moroccan Arabic as well. In Moroccan Arabic it is pronounced Lee-see.
The students in the Access Program regularly attend different high schools around Azilal, but on Saturdays they come to Lycee Ouzoud for 4 hours of English instruction and culture.
This is the front of Lycee Ouzoud. On weekdays this space is packed with students meeting with their friends and enjoying the class breaks.
This is the view of main street in Azilal from the entrance of Lycee Ouzoud. You can see stores, offices, and apartments right nearby.
This is the football (soccer) field at the high school. Kids can play here after school or on the weekends. Because of the dry weather, this field can get really dusty!
This is a view of the teacher's lounge at the high school. You can see that the school is divided up into different buildings around the campus.
Here are the rooms where the Access Program is held. All the classrooms at Ouzoud open to the outside with big windows and doors. There is no heating or air conditioning in the school so the windows help regulate the temperature when it is hot, and students wear lots of layers in the wintertime to stay warm.
This is a view of the central courtyard of the school. You can see the Moroccan flag and some artwork. The campus is full of trees and places to chat with friends between classes.
How is Lycee Ouzoud different than your school? Do you like it?
