Yerevan, August 6, 2009 - The complete reconstruction of the community
school of Khashtarak, a village in Armenia's Tavush Region, will soon
conclude with the provision of furniture and the establishment of a
fully equipped computer lab on campus.
The school's renovation, which continues to proceed on schedule,
is financed by the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's French, German, and
Swiss affiliates as well as the Germany-based Armenian Merchants'
Union. The school-furniture and computer-lab components of the
initiative are made possible by the fund's Australian affiliate.
Currently the school's classrooms and offices are being decorated,
and the final phase of the project will include the landscaping of
the structure's surroundings.
"We're very hopeful that the rehabilitated school, with its wonderful
new environment, will help deepen the students' interest in learning,"
said Ara Vardanyan, the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's executive
director.
On his part, school principal Gerasim Tirabyan stated his belief that
the renovated campus is a key requisite in terms of preparing a cadre
of highly educated youths who will contribute to the development
of Khashtarak. "Our school had not seen any upgrades since 1973,"
Tirabyan said. "It was in dire need of the current improvements."
"Thanks to the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund, Khashtarak was provided
with a gas pipeline and distribution network as well as a health
clinic," the principal continued. "Moreover, I'm extremely happy
to report that in the coming months the fund will continue its
community-development effort in the village, this time by completely
rebuilding our water-irrigation network."
