Representatives of the first graduating class of the Professional High School of Agriculture “Kliment Timiryazev” in Zavet, Razgrad region are looking for their classmates to invite to the unveiling of an honorary marble plaque.

Dimitrov promised assistance both for the discovery of their classmates and for the overall organization of placing the marble plaque. The initiative committee has planned the event to take place on May 22, and the marble plaque with the inscription “Appreciative tribute from the students of the 1st class 1958-1962” will be opened with an official celebration in the courtyard of the high school. The date was chosen because it is the birthday of their patron – Kliment Arkadievich Timiryazev.
“We want to invite people who studied with us, but we lost contact for one reason or another, they may live in Razgrad or in the villages here. If they find out about our initiative, we will be happy for them to come to the event,” said Stoyanka Dimitrova, Kosyo Kosev and Atanas Atanasov, part of the initiative committee for placing the marble plaque. Vladimir Dimitrov congratulated them on the useful initiative and promised to attend the official opening. This year marks the 62nd anniversary of their graduation. The plaque they will put up is part of their desire to preserve the memory for the future, as the school gave them an excellent start – 85% of the students in the first graduating class subsequently completed higher and semi-higher education and achieved professional success, according to the district administration .
