To maintain student motivation during the three years of the European section and no longer see the motivation of some students droping down after the training period abroad, the Lycée Jean Monnet now offers a 3-year project .
To ensure consistency in these three years , the teaching team offers students to study the life of Lily Langtry also nicknamed "The Jersey Lily", a famous actress of the nineteenth century , known for her incredible beauty, her actress abilities and her affair with George VII .

The group will consist of 13 girls and 6 boys. All of its students are enrolled in the European section of the school.
The proposed three-year project is split as follows :
