On September 1, priest-curators of educational institutions took part in ceremonial assemblies dedicated to the Day of Knowledge. In a festive atmosphere, the clergy congratulated the teaching staff and students on the start of the new school year, saying parting words.

Our school chaplain Fr. Michael was at the first-day assembly too — he kept his talk short and told the kids to be kind to each other even when the math gets hard. Nice to see the article mention meeting the parents; that part actually happens.
