A conversation with Dua’a Bisharat of Saviour’s School

Dua’a Bisharat, principal of Saviour’s Episcopal School in Zarqa, Jordan, talks with AFEDJ’s John Lent about the mission of the school and current conditions in Jordan.

The conversation took place via Zoom on July 7, 2020. Saviour’s Episcopal School is a progressive K-12 school in Zarqa, the second largest city in Jordan. In addition to offering a full academic program, Saviour’s offers 20 low-vision and blind students the opportunity to be fully integrated into the life of the school.
