Hayastan All Armenian Fund continues construction of Stepanakert's No. 11
School
The construction of a new campus for Stepanakert's No. 11 School is
proceeding on schedule, announced the Hayastan All Armenian Fund. The
project, spearheaded by the Armenia Fund U.S. Western Region, is made
possible through a donation by Armenian-American benefactor Gerald
Turpanjian.
With the foundations of the classrooms building and events hall already
laid, currently crews are constructing the columns of the gymnasium and the
walls of the classrooms building. The project is slated to be completed by
August 2010.
When the school opens its doors in time the 2010-2011 academic year, it will
have an administrative building next to the main structure housing the
classrooms, which will accommodate 560 students. Both buildings will consist
of three stories. In addition to the gymnasium, the campus will feature a
library, a canteen, vocational-training classrooms, an open-air events area,
and a playground. The administrative building will include the principal's
office, teachers' room, a health clinic, computer labs, and a reception area
for parents. Heating for the school will be provided by a boiler room.
"After years of having to conduct classrooms in a kindergarten, we will at
last be provided with top-notch school facilities," said Aida Grigoryan, the
school's principal.
Commenting on the Hayastan All Armenian Fund's ongoing community-development
effort in Nagorno Karabakh and Armenia, Ara Vardanyan, the fund's acting
executive director, said, "We have every reason to believe that the future
campus of the No. 11 School will become a veritable bastion of learning for
the new generation."
