Mehmet Yarka Secondary School opens in Şırnak

The Mehmet Yarka Secondary School, a 16-classroom facility, has officially opened in Şırnak. The project was completed through the support of the Yarka family and construction work by MAY İnşaat.

During the opening ceremony, Şırnak Governor Birol Ekici noted that 17 schools are being constructed in the city this year. He emphasized the importance of strengthening educational infrastructure to eliminate dual-shift education, which previously affected 26,000 students in the region. Ekici also highlighted planned future projects, including a disability rehabilitation campus and a 3,000-square-meter science center designed to symbolize Noah’s Ark, which is supported by the Ministry of Industry and Technology.

Şırnak Mayor Mehmet Yarka attended the ceremony, stating that the true pride of the school would be the students who graduate from it.
