NOVO GORAŽDE, October 17 (FENA) - The completion of the reconstruction of the local elementary school "Vuk Karadžić" in the municipality of Novo Goražde (RS) was officially marked today, as the renovation will create better teaching conditions for the staff and the pupils.
Funds for the complete reconstruction of this school facility were provided by the US Embassy's Office for Defense Cooperation in the amount of USD 110,702.16.
According to Momir Radojćić, the principal of the elementary school "Vuk Karadžić" in Višegrad, under which the school in Novo Goražde operates, this is a significant project especially since the construction works on energy efficiency of the building were carried out.
In the new school facility, students will have better conditions for acquiring knowledge and extracurricular activities, and in particular the costs for heating in winter conditions will be reduced.
“The commitment of the United States is to assist and support development programs in BiH, including those in the field of education,” said US Embassy Military Attaché, Colonel Michael Tarquinto.
