its probably possible , try to find a organization to help like goabroad.com or something similar . High school in France is a little different from the US and you might found it a little harder ,specialy if you wanna get good grade. I would advice to email the ambassy of France to see if you can get infos about it.

To graduate from a high school in France means that you will need to pass the baccaleureat. If you move to France you will probably need to do the last two years (unless you can work something out) since the bac is a test that is taken over the last two years of high school similar to AP tests they're pretty intense compared to American high schools. You will also need to choose a path to get your bac in (litterature, economics, math, etc.) Good luck I think it would be a great experience.

There are also a bunch of American and International schools located all over France, although most are concentrated in big, international cities such as Paris, Nice, Lyon, etc. If you're a senior I would not recommend taking the French Baccalaureate, which takes at least two years to prepare. International schools cater for expats, and usually have the equivalent of the country of origin's examination system or syllabus - for example, a normal US high school degree or the possibility to take the Advanced Placement (AP) test. The downside: international schools are very expensive as they are not government-sponsord. To find out more, check out the site of the European Council of International Schools.
