Hayastan All-Armenian Fund builds new school in Artsakh's Gishi Village
The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund has begun construction of a new school in
Gishi, a village in Nagorno Karabakh's Martuni Region. The project is
sponsored by the Vardanyan Family Foundation and the government of Artsakh.
Designed to accommodate 300 students, the future campus will have 12
classrooms, a computer room, and laboratories for the study of chemistry,
physics, and biology. The school will also feature a sizeable gym, a
first-aid room, a library, an events hall, and a cafeteria with a 140-person
capacity.
"Of the wide range of projects implemented by the Hayastan All-Armenian
Fund, I would be hard-pressed to single out the most important ones," said
Ara Vardanyan, the fund's executive director. "I think all of our projects
are urgently needed. Still, it's worth noting that our school-building
initiatives hold a special place in our hearts, and continue to be carried
out with particular care and a sense of responsibility with respect to our
present and future generations."
Gishi's existing school, which is attended by 220 students, is in a state of
disrepair. Its two crumbling buildings were constructed in 1930 and 1968,
respectively.
Commenting on the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund project, Gishi mayor Gevorg
Balayan expressed his strong belief that the new school will help foster
educational excellence, by improving the quality of the pedagogical and
learning processes alike.
