Rose and Alex Pilibos Armenian SchoolThe Rose and Alex Pilibos
Armenian School recently received a $40,000 grant by The Armenian
Academy of Los Angeles (AALA) to fund the establishment of Armenian
Learning Labs throughout the School, Asbarez reports.
Each learning lab will include a SMART board, projector, new versatile
furniture, and softwares necessary for their lessons. The goal is to
create an environment where students can utilize technology not just
to research their heritage, prepare projects, and create new learning
opportunities, but to reach out to other Armenian communities and
engage in collaborative learning.
With the implementation of this grant, Pilibos will create an
environment that is not only technologically advanced, but also will
encourage innovative thinking and application of ideas learned in the
classroom to further the enhancement of various areas of the Armenian
subject. Students will use technology to work collaboratively on
issues and projects, and help establish 21st century solutions to
Armenian issues by creating Armenian global communities, forums, and
Apps to be utilized for Armenian subjects and issues.
The Armenian Academy of Los Angeles was created to provide
opportunities for the Armenian Youth of today. `The mission of the
Academy is to provide an academically challenging, culturally intense,
and thought-provoking environment in which students are enriched with
the broad knowledge, imagination, attitudes, and moral values that
promote personal achievement, enhance the potential of our community,
shape our collective future, and benefit society as a whole.'
Keeping their mission in mind, Pilibos aims to provide the same kind
of opportunities for students through the acceptance and
implementation of this grant. Principal Alina Dorian said, `We are
very excited and appreciative of the generosity of the Armenian
Academy of Los Angeles towards our School and students. It is because
of this grant that students will have the opportunity to bring a
modern and current perspective to the study of the Armenian language,
culture, and history.'
