Fewer first-graders in the region's schools
This school year, almost 4 thousand fewer first-graders started school in the Nizhny Novgorod Region than a year earlier, a drop of about 6%. The decline is linked to the low birth rate of the early 1990s: in a number of schools, two or three first-grade classes are now formed instead of three or four.
