Bukvarna class is set up for children as stepping stone to see which school the child will proceed to next, ACADEMY OF UKRAINIAN STUDIES or UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE SCHOOL (Ukrainian as a second language). In Bukvarna class, children are able to build on their vocabulary and get to improve their language skills.  They work on learning the alphabet, putting together word structures and learn how to read and write.  After the child finishes their stay in Bukvarna class, a decision is made to which school the child will proceed to next.
