St. Stephen's School Preparing for Campus Expansion

will add a two-story building next to its nursery school as part of its campus expansion.

The work on the private, bilingual school on Nichols Avenue is expected to be completed by the beginning of school in the fall of 2012, according to an article by the Armenian Mirror-Spectator.

“We are very excited by the launch of this project, which will allow us to meet the growing demand from our community and enhance the programs and activities for our students,” Principal Houry Boyamian, told the Mirror-Spectator. “Over the last few years, we have had a waiting list of students for entry into our preschool program, and this expansion will provide us with the additional capacity to accommodate these students.”

The school began in 1984 as a preschool with eight students and has grown to close to 200 students.

The school has already raised enough funds to pay for more than half the project.
