Mentally and physically healthy, educated, clever and free citizen is the pledge of the state’s welfare and freedom. In addition, the quality education is one of the key priorities of our state and society. It is our strategic resource, which we should continuously develop.

All children want to recognize the world, have friends, get education, learn handicraft or be engaged with art and science. We should give an equal opportunity to all children, at the same time strengthening in them the thought that one can reach a result with the harmony of dignity, freedom and responsibility.

Dear schoolchildren and students! Appreciate your time, the opportunity given to you, the efforts made by your teachers and lecturers, multiply your knowledge, develop your thought, soul and body and be worthy sons of your parents, your family and Motherland.

I wish you to have the school and the higher educational institution in all your lives not only the place, where the one who receives knowledge and passes it meet, but a place of sincere friendship, self-revelation and self-manifestation.

I wish you health, success and all the best.”
