Dear Teachers! Veterans of Education!
I sincerely congratulate you on the Teachers´ Day. This is a remarkable holiday which we celebrate together as pupils, at first, and then as parents. We celebrate the Teachers´ Day will special cordiality and gratitude to our tutors.
The occupation of a teacher has the highest demands. Ukrainian teachers have always performed their noble mission, stayed in the limelight of the public life and now are regarded as bearers of knowledge, culture and humanitarian values.
Your professionalism, civic stance and attentive attitude to your pupils are worthless. Social position of a young generation depends on your pedagogical skill, wisdom and tolerance.
I wish you happiness and sound health. Let good fortune accompany you everywhere. May your pupils bring you joy of their victories and achievements.
