About Us
In March 2002, the Education Center website was established to assist you with the lesson packet of the Armenian Genocide of 1915. This packet was sent to the attention of the History and Social Sciences chairperson at each public and private high school in Virginia. These lessons support the World History II, SOL 11b. The Armenian Genocide is included in the Virginia Department of Education's revised Curriculum Framework (page 49) as the first major example of genocide in the 20th century and a precursor to the Jewish Holocaust.
In addition to the lesson plans provided on this site, we also maintain a substantial library of resources which includes material on the subject of human rights, specifically the Armenian Genocide of 1915. We have many resources on Armenian history, literature and culture. The Education Center will give full consideration to all serious requests.
