Merdinian Armenian Evangelical School vs. The Buckley School

The Merdinian Armenian Evangelical School was founded in 1982. It is administered by an independent, non-profit corporation, Armenian Evangelical Schools of California, Inc. It is governed by a Board of Directors whose members represent the Armenian Missionary Association of America, the Armenian Evangelical Union of North America, the Armenian Evangelical Churches in the greater Los Angeles area, the school Parent-Teacher Organization, and the Armenian Evangelical community at large.

We believe that the integration of the educational efforts of the home, the church, and the school is basic to the development of each child's fullest potential.

This joint effort needs to encompass the following perspectives academic excellence, spiritual enrichment and moral guidance, social development, optimum physical development, knowledge and appreciation of the American and Armenian heritages.

At Buckley, our rigorous and engaging learning environment empowers both challenging academics and joy in learning.

Every day our inspired faculty encourages students to push themselves to new heights of learning and new depths of self-knowledge.

We do this because authentic, passionate learners find happiness and success in school, stand out to and are valued by colleges, and develop the tools to lead full and meaningful lives.
