[2] In 1979, Awty merged with the French School of Houston and began offering a bilingual program.

[2] On the school's 50th anniversary in 2006, a $5 million athletic complex including a 1,400-seat stadium, 85 parking spaces, and tennis courts were constructed.

Agencies accrediting Awty include the International Baccalaureate (IB), the Independent Schools Association of the Southwest (ISAS), the Ministry of National Education of France, and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science of the Netherlands.

Languages in addition to English, French, and Spanish often include Arabic, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, and Russian.

[3] The main campus, with 26 acres (11 ha) of land,[3] is in Spring Branch in western Houston.

[3] A three-story, 65,000-square-foot (6,000 m2), 33-classroom facility,[10] called the Levant Foundation Building,[4] is located near the school's entrance.

"[4] Demolition of "Big Blue" was completed in August, 2014[4] to make way for the new Student Campus Center.

In 2017, a second 5-acre Early Learning Campus was added nearby for students in PK3/PS, PK4/MS, Kinder/GS, and 1st grade/CP featuring 26 classrooms, dedicated indoor spaces for art, music, dining, after-school program, and technology, as well as a full gym.

Outdoors, the facility features two playgrounds, learning gardens, and three decks for class activities.

The former campus on Garrettson Street was west of the 610 Loop,[12] in what is now the Uptown Houston district.

The athletic compound includes a stadium with 1,400 seats, four tennis courts, a press box, a polyethylene soccer pitch, 80 parking spaces, locker rooms,[11] a storage facility,[16] offices of coaches, and a concessions stand.

Stuart Holden, a midfielder for the Houston Dynamo and an alumnus of the school, attended the 2008 opening ceremony.

[16] Annette Baird of the Houston Chronicle describes the former soccer field as "an undersized bumpy pitch".
