The construction of the first underground school in Kharkiv has been completed and will be open to students by the end of this school year, the press service of the Kharkiv City Council reports, citing Mayor Igor Terekhov.
“The building is built to the highest safety standards, has 20 classrooms and is designed to accommodate 900 students in two shifts. Enrollment for the next school year is almost complete. Already this year, 600 children will sit down at their desks,” Terekhov wrote on the social network X on Tuesday.
According to him, similar schools are planned to be built in different parts of the city. “We plan to continue building similar schools in other parts of the city to ensure that all our children have equal access to quality and, most importantly, safe education,” Terekhov said.
