Ordinary Miracle school in Yoshkar-Ola, the capital city of the Mari El Republic, Russia, resembles fairy tale castle. The locals call it Hogwarts School (meaning architectural style), but the oficial name is School number 5. And the author and sponsor of this ‘Ordinary Miracle’ – Russian businessman Sergey Mamaev. Thus he embodied the dream of his wife Tatiana, a teacher, who complained that she was tired of the typical official buildings of all schools, which don’t differ from one another. The school is 12 years old, and after it was rebuit in 2013, it got the name “Ordinary Miracle”. Both the children and teachers are happy
