Back To School Campaign

Back To School Campaign

	UNICEF's nationwide "Back to School" campaign started this week. The campaign wants to get more than 1.5 million primary school age children in school.
	The school that was first to get utensils and supplies was the school of Abul Quasim Ferdowsi which has 2,000 kids aged 7 to 18.
	A lot of teenage girls are attending catchup classes, because they coud not finish going to school under the Taliban rule.
	On March 21- New Year's Day for Afghanistan, the country celebrated the start of a new school year.
	Many Afghans cannot wait. Villages and towns from Herat to Kabul don't have to hide anymore.
