Dear pedagogues! Dear friends!

I sincerely congratulate you on your professional holiday - Teacher's Day!

On this day, I address the warmest and sincerest words of gratitude to all of you who have linked your life path with the profession of a teacher, who work with all responsibility for the benefit of the national education system, who raise our children as patriots of their country, who give a piece of their soul to each of their numerous students every day.

Thanks to your teaching skills, professional knowledge, spiritual generosity and care, our children become motivated, win prestigious Olympiads and competitions, make an informed choice of their future profession and the university they want to enter.

Today, a teacher is the main wealth of our society, its spiritual strength. The personality of a teacher, his position, his worldview are of great importance both for the education system and for the successful development of the country as a whole.

Thank you, dear teachers, for your tireless work for the benefit of our education system.

I wish you strong health, creative achievements, inexhaustible optimism, happiness and family warmth!
