"Au lycée Albert-Schweitzer du Raincy, l'option histoire de l'art[...]pour les collégiens de Bondy, de Clichy-sous-Bois et des autres communes pauvres des alentours, c'est la possibilité de contourner la carte scolaire, qui les oblige à s'inscrire au lycée de leur ville." students avoiding Nobel attended senior high schools in Chelles, Le Raincy, and Vaujours.
