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
0D help foster educational excellence, by improving the quality of
the pedagogical and learning processes alike.
