History
The lycée was built in 1955 by the architect Roger Séassal, grand Prix de Rome. It is, like the neighbouring Parc de Choisy located on the former gasworks of the avenue de Choisy. Construction began at the end of the 1920s, which explains its architecture. Its construction was interrupted by the Great Depression and World War II. It resumed after the war, and was completed in 1955. An important renovation took place from 1998.The murals decorating the lycée were created by:
- Jean Dupas frescos Jeux de Cartes and Jeux d'échecs in the entrance hall, dated 1954 and 1956 ;
- Jean Bouchaud ;
- Yves Brayer.
Gabriel Fauré eventually had a lycée nearby named after him, at 81, avenue de Choisy.

Infrastructure
The lycée consists of four floors and a basement, the fourth floor, under the roof, dedicated entirely to plastic arts. There are three school libraries in the lycée, two music rooms, and a 200 seat theatre. In the basement, there is a gym, a dojo, multiple locker rooms, and a 150 seat conference room. The ground floor contains administration offices, the infirmary, the refectory and a parlor. Outside, the lycée has almost entirely been adapted for people with reduced mobility: there are two lifts and an access ramp near to the stoop.Ranking of the lycée
In 2017, the lycée was ranked 20th out of 115 at departmental level in terms of teaching quality, and 106th at national level. The ranking was based on three criteria: the results of the bac, the proportion of students who obtain the baccalauréat having completed their final two years of schooling at the establishment, and the value added.CPGE rankings
