Only Armenian school in Jordan about to close
A decision has been taken to shut down the only Armenian school operating in Jordan, a move that can pose a serious threat to the local Armenian community’s existence, Maral Nersessian, one of the community members, said on Facebook.
She says their existence is already put at risk outside the community amid unprecedented mixed marriages and union-related issues, and now without the school serving as ‘the pillar of the community, it is set to face a reality marked by radical threats.’
Nersessian is alerting that the number of school students is falling year by year, with the major blow to the school being the migration of Syrian Armenians.
