In France coming back to school, and back to work after the summer vacation is a very important time of year. The French refer to this part of the year as “rentrée.” We decided to take a deep dive into the French school system with Romy Treneer who raised two children in Paris while teaching in the French university system before embarking on a career in the corporate sector.
