Artsakh President Arayik Harutyunyan sent a congratulatory address to the school graduates in connection with the "Last Bell" event. As the Information Department at the President’s Office reported, the message read in part:
“This year the pandemic has, unfortunately, undermined us holding the solemn event of the "Last Bell". I am confident that the disappointment caused by this situation will not prevent each of you from doing your best to achieve the set goals. Don't forget that every crisis is also an opportunity.
After graduating from the school, an important phase is getting started in your life when the knowledge level and skills will be the criteria of quality and productivity. Thus, whatever profession you would choose, you should become a leading specialist in your sphere.”
The president next said that as promised during the campaign, starting from the first of September, the higher education will be free. “But I want to emphasize once again that the state will set up strict requirements for the quality of education. Therefore, you should study well and continuously improve yourselves,” Harutyunyan added.
