New School Opens in Atamanovka, Focusing on STEM Education

The village of Atamanovka has launched a new school, named after the Soviet war hero Ivan Matyugin, on September 1st. The three-story building, which can accommodate 520 students, boasts spacious classrooms, a large gymnasium, and a stadium with exercise equipment.

The new school is also home to a class for drone management training, which has recently been opened at Chita school No. 25. However, it remains unclear if this class is a new addition or an extension of an existing program, or if it will be available to students attending in the first shift only.

Ivan Matyugin, the namesake of the school, was a regiment commander who heroically died while crossing the Dnieper in 1943. He is commemorated by a school named after him in Atamanovka.

In the upper grades of the school, emphasis will be placed on strengthening physics and mathematics, with robotics classes also being added to the curriculum. The school's location is not specified in the information provided.

The government of the Zabaykalsky Krai announced the launch of the new school on their official website, but they have not yet specified if the strengthened focus on physics and mathematics, or the addition of robotics classes, will be limited to the first shift.

The school also features a parent parking lot, providing convenience for families dropping off and picking up their children. The location of the classes for drone management training remains undisclosed.

The new school in Atamanovka is set to offer a comprehensive education with a strong emphasis on STEM subjects, aiming to prepare the next generation for the challenges of the future.
