In total, six metro stations have been equipped for studies in the city.
Classes in the metro school
“Although, due to the realities of the war, we are once again forced to begin the educational process primarily remotely, there have been some positive changes. For example, thanks to the newly built underground school, reconstructed anti-radiation shelters, and metro schools, five times more students will sit at their desks this year than last. This modest accomplishment is critical for our entire city!” said Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov.
