Merdinian Armenian Evangelical School

Merdinian was proud to host the first session of AGBU’s AI Learning Initive. Educators from AGBU, Merdinian, and Hovsepian came together for a professional development session focused on AI literacy in education.

As artificial intelligence continues to shape the educational landscape, teachers explored strategies for identifying AI-generated work, understanding its impact on student learning, and addressing its use thoughtfully and effectively in the classroom.

Thank you to all who participated in this important conversation as we work together to prepare students for a rapidly evolving world.

🎉 Congratulations to Gaelle E., Michelle M., and Mariam K. on receiving Honorable Mention recognition from the Armenian Engineers & Scientists of America (AESA)! 👏

The three 8th grade students were awarded medals and monetary prizes for their science project, Removing Microplastics from Water Using Ferrofluids. We are proud of their hard work, creativity, and dedication to scientific inquiry.

Way to represent Merdinian and showcase the power of young minds tackling real-world challenges! 🔬🌟

🎉 Thank You, Merdinian Families! 🎉

From joyful laughter to enthusiastic little performers singing with all their hearts, our Transitional Kindergarten Year-End Program was a joyful celebration of spring, God’s love, and beautiful Armenian dances! 🌸☀️ Watching our little performers confidently take the stage and share their songs and messages made for such sweet and memorable moments for our families.

We would like to extend a special thank you to all of our amazing TK staff and to Ms. Anna Zakaryan for the care, creativity, and hard work that went into putting together such a meaningful program. 💛

Final stop. Final memories. 🇺🇸

Yesterday, our 8th graders stood before one of America’s greatest monuments! Mount Rushmore! Where history, leadership, and legacy are carved into stone.

Each president was chosen to represent a defining chapter of the American story:�🇺🇸 George Washington — the birth of our nation�🇺🇸 Thomas Jefferson — expansion and growth�🇺🇸 Abraham Lincoln — preservation and unity�🇺🇸 Theodore Roosevelt — development and progress

As our students close this chapter of middle school, we hope they leave inspired to lead with courage, vision, resilience, and purpose, just as these leaders once did.
What an unforgettable journey together through history, nature, friendship, and discovery. ❤️🦬🏔️

Day 4 of our 8th Grade Adventure brought us to the incredible Devils Tower National Monument — the very first U.S. National Monument, established in 1906 by President Theodore Roosevelt under the Antiquities Act. 🇺🇸

Standing beneath this breathtaking natural wonder, our students explored not only the science and geology behind the tower, but also its deep cultural and historical significance to many Native American tribes.

From learning about America’s commitment to preserving natural landmarks to experiencing the beauty of Wyoming firsthand, today was a day full of awe, discovery, and unforgettable memories.

Day 3 in Yellowstone 🏔️💚
Today our students were officially sworn in as Junior Park Rangers and explored the breathtaking Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and Lower Falls! 🌲🌊

From learning about nature and conservation to witnessing God’s incredible creation up close, it was a day filled with adventure, wonder, and unforgettable memories. 🦬✨

At exactly 11:14 AM Monday morning, our students witnessed the incredible eruption of Old Faithful one of the world’s most famous geysers and a true natural wonder.

Did you know? Old Faithful erupts because underground water is heated by volcanic rock beneath the Earth’s surface. Pressure builds until steaming hot water bursts into the air, sometimes reaching heights of over 100 feet! 🌎💨

Experiencing science, history, and nature firsthand is what makes learning unforgettable. Our 8th graders are already making memories that will last a lifetime! 🦬🏔️

Tiny voices, big smiles, and the sweetest performances made our Preschool Year-End Program so special! 🌸💐 Our preschoolers celebrated spring and Mother’s Day with adorable songs, dances, and heartfelt moments that brought so much joy to everyone in attendance.

A special thank you to our wonderful preschool teachers and to Ms. Anna Zakaryan for putting together such a beautiful program and creating memories our families will cherish for years to come. 💖

Our MAC Awards Night was full of energy, teamwork, and school spirit! 🏀⚽🏐 Families enjoyed fun parent and student competitions in basketball, soccer, and volleyball as we celebrated and honored our student athletes for their dedication and hard work throughout the sports seasons. A huge thank you to Coach Vahe, Coach Sossy, and our Merdinian Athletic Committee for such a fun and eventful evening! 👏
