The Library of Congress, The Government of USA has issued the
following Speech:
Mr. SCHIFF. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Armenian Sisters'
Academy of Los Angeles upon its thirtieth anniversary.
The Armenian Sisters' Academy of Los Angeles (ASA), nestled in the
foothills of the Verdugo Mountains in Montrose, offers a Day Care
Program, Preschool, Kindergarten and grades 1st through 8th.
Established in 1985, the ASA is one of three schools in the United
States operated and governed by the only existing Catholic Order of
the Armenian Sisters of the Immaculate Conception, which was founded
in 1847. The other two schools are located in Radnor, Pennsylvania and
Lexington, Massachusetts, established in 1967 and 1979, respectively.
Since its inception, the ASA has been committed to providing an
exemplary and well-rounded education to its students. The ASA offers
a bilingual curriculum, art, music and computer instruction to all
students, and has been successful in preserving the identity and
culture of the Armenian people by teaching the Armenian language,
Armenian cultural courses and religion. The ASA also offers after
school extracurricular activities such as Armenian dance classes,
basketball and volleyball.
The Armenian Sisters' Academy of Los Angeles is dedicated to the
development of the child spiritually, personally, emotionally,
intellectually and socially. Among the many goals and objectives
the ASA strives to achieve include providing each student with a
respectful and optimistic environment in which each student feels
encouraged, creating an atmosphere where the Armenian language,
heritage and culture may be taught and experienced, emphasizing the
heritage, privileges and responsibilities of American citizenship,
and encouraging small group work and the increased use of independent
study. I commend the ASA for being an integral part of the community,
and applaud the school's unwavering commitment to our youth. The ASA
plays a central role in shaping our children into responsible citizens
and thriving members of society.
I ask all Members to join me in congratulating the Armenian Sisters'
Academy of Los Angeles for thirty years of dedicated service to
the community.
