When classes begin in September, there'll be fewer elementary
schools, but better conditions for pupil, according
to a plan to improve the education system in Armenia.

Labor of Love: Land and Culture

Since 1989, the Land and Culture Organization has been
uniting willing workers with worthwhile projects, giving
Diaspora volunteers a summer of memories in the Motherland.
While the UK broke temperature records
with 38 C (100.4 F), Summer in the City was a hotter
tune in Yerevan. The Opera House thermometer registered
as high as 48 (118.4).
On August 10, temperatures in high elevations
were said to have reached 55 (131). The Ministry of
Healthcare advised residents to eat more fruit and easily
digestible foods.
By Friday, things had "cooled down"
to 30 (86).
