A second military school for women is to open in Russia

Russia: First Military School for women had opened in Moscow in 2008. Now the second Military School is opening in St. Petersburg in 2012. 

The Moscow school was opened for the daughters of the military men who served in remote garrisons. The school also welcomed the girls from single-parent and large families, as well as the daughters of deceased military men and participants of combat actions decorated with state honors.

The girls study school subjects, military subjects and three foreign languages. The students of the Moscow military school for girls also learn how to dance and sing, play musical instruments, make sculptures and paint.

The positive experience of the first educational military institution for girls prompted the creation of another school in the country - in St. Petersburg. All the graduates of the Moscow military school entered colleges.
