May 25 is the last day of the academic year in secondary schools of
NKR. This year 2324 students left school (814 from the capital). The
Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport informed that 10 alumni are
candidates to gold medals. 7 are from the schools of the capital, 3
from Askeran.

As long ago as April 21 signed an order banning parties at schools
after the final exams, as well as graduation parties with the teaching
staff and directors. Open Society and Unity NGOs held a round-table
meeting to find out the attitude of teachers, students and parents to
these parties, which have become a tradition at schools. A family
usually spends about 100 dollars on the graduation party only.
