SU Alexander Ivanov–Chapai is an exemplary school. Nestled between three mountains – Rila, Rhodope and Sredna Gora, and near two rivers – Maritsa and Yadenitsa, it successfully combines the traditions of history with a modern and technologically up-to-date look. Over 500 children study there, and there are about 60 teachers, most of whom are young people. Cleanliness and warm comfort emanate from every room and corridor in the building, which also has an elevator for children with disabilities, an event hall, a library, a gym, a canteen, and the rooms for individual subjects are equipped with all the necessary tools. Transport is also provided for the children. The school in Belovo is proud of its many extracurricular and entertaining activities – such as robotics, mathematics, drawing, folk dances, a cheerleading squad and of course – Volleyball.

The interest in Volleyball motivated the school management to renovate one of the courtyard courts as well, so that more children could practice the game. The official opening was combined with the CEV School Project, and the ribbon was cut by Spaska Kuzmanova, director of the Alexander Ivanov – Chapai Secondary School, as well as Stoyko Stefanov, the newly elected mayor of Belovo. This happened in the presence of representatives of the Bulgarian Volleyball Federation, among them Vice-President David Davidov, Administrative Director Stanislav Nikolov, the coordinator for the national teams Nikolay Ivanov and BVF School Project Manager Adriana Marinkova.
