Environmental Education Program Manager Alla Berberyan visited the U.S. in April as part of ATP’s Building Bridges program to connect students with their environmental heritage.
Alla was hosted by the Hovnanian School in New Milford, New Jersey on April 18, where she explained ATP’s programs and described Armenia’s natural heritage and some of its environmental challenges. The discussion was attended by students from the seventh and eighth grade classes.
The AGBU Alex and Marie Manoogian School in Southfield, Michigan hosted Alla on April 20 for a similar presentation for the fourth and fifth grade classes. The students listened intently and performed extremely well on Alla’s quiz at the end of the presentation.
Both schools welcomed Alla with great enthusiasm during the week of Earth Day when other environmental programs were happening and promised to visit ATP during their class trips to Armenia.
