The Sœurs de la Charité de Besançon School– Baabda is located in the southern suburbs of Beirut along the Hazmieh-Baabda-Hadat axis. The school opened its doors in 1969 for the intermediate and secondary cycles, as the mother school, Sainte Anne, located in the center of Beirut, had become too small to accommodate the growing number of students. Over time, classes expanded from preschool to high school.
