Professional High School 'Queen Joanna' Opens New STEM Space

A new STEM space was opened at the Professional High School of Agriculture "Queen Joanna." The solemn event took place in the first building of the school, where the premises have been renovated.

Among the guests were Deputy Mayor of Pazardzhik Municipality Nino Nenov, Head of the Regional Education Administration Dora Dulcheva, expert from BEL Galina Tsaneva, and directors of educational institutions from the region.

Students from the high school presented a short festive program in traditional costumes. It began with an inspiring poem about knowledge by the renowned Pazardzhik-born writer, artist, and public figure Konstantin Velichkov – a symbolic bridge between tradition and modern education.

In her address, the school principal Ivanka Georgieva emphasized the significance of the event and expressed gratitude to all who worked on the preparation and implementation of the project. It is under a contract under the OP "Science and Education for Smart Growth," and the investment amounts to nearly 362,700 leva.

Within the framework of the project, a total of six premises have been renovated, three of which are equipped with high-tech devices. The new STEM environment combines key areas such as design and 3D prototyping, mathematics and informatics, natural sciences, green technologies, and sustainable development.

Students will now have the opportunity to work with interactive displays, powerful computers and laptops, digital microscopes, 3D printers, CNC laser engraving machines, specialized software, and virtual technologies. Particular interest among young people is also expected to be sparked by the agricultural drone and the so-called "smart greenhouse" – innovative solutions that will support learning through practice and real experiments.
