The Prime Minister inspected the new school building, sports grounds, school buses and talked to students.

The new school in the village of Lopatino, Tarussky District, Kaluga Region, was built on the site of an old building that was demolished in 2021, and opened its doors to students on September 1, 2025. The construction was carried out within the framework of the state program "Education Development" and the national project "Education".

During the construction of the new building, schoolchildren studied in Tarusa, in schools No. 1 and No. 2, in the first and second shifts.

The design capacity of the new school is 250 students. The area of the new building is 5047 sq. m (3 floors). 24 employees will work here, including 14 teachers.

The school has 17 classrooms: 2 math classrooms, 2 Russian language and literature classrooms, 2 foreign language classrooms, chemistry and physics classrooms with lab assistants, an IT classroom with a lab and server room, a classroom for “Fundamentals of Security and Defense of the Motherland,” a history, social science and geography classroom, a music classroom, a visual arts classroom, 3 workshops, as well as 4 primary school classrooms with a recreation area for active recreation of younger students, which are located in a separate block, isolated from the senior level.

The school has equipped a sports hall, a library, an organizational room, a social initiatives room, premises for the additional education center "Growth Point", spaces for students to relax and work individually, and separate wardrobes for senior and junior classes.
