The centenary of the school was commemorated, safely, with masks – those who are ill appeared, “said the mayor of the Jonava district.

“That hybrid teaching, of course, adds additional complications for our teachers; so you have to work both with the screen and with the students sitting in the classroom, you get such a drawback, because you can show more attention to the child who is in contact, respond to your questions, react faster, see if you understand or not, “he said on Delfi Day.
