All this is organized for their candidate, Hranush Grigoryan, who works as a chemistry teacher at the school, as well as the deputy director for professional support, and her husband, Arthur Hovhannisyan, who is a lawyer and actively participates in the rallies, is one of the organizers. Shushanik Voskanyan, the newly appointed principal of Vagharshapat Public School # 8, told NEWS.am about it on December 20, referring to the ongoing campaign against him.
According to him, he does not know anyone in the community yet and the opinions that he was dismissed from the Shirazi Vard other school have nothing to do with reality. “Baghramyan"s case should be kept quiet because it was a show. The revolution was used for personal gain. They didn"t work with me, I didn"t violate their rights, what does it mean we don"t want to? I am a director appointed by law. "
According to Shushanik Voskanyan, the teaching staff and parents say that new elections should be held and they do not have a candidate, but this is not true as there are rumors in the community that the campaign is organized by several people.
“I have information that the teachers and parents Shirazi Vard of Vagharshapat School have candidates and are organizing all this to achieve what they want. All this is organized for their candidate, Hranush Grigoryan, who is a chemistry teacher and deputy director for professional assistance, and her husband, Arthur Hovhannisyan, who is a lawyer, actively attends the rallies and is one of the organizers, ”said Voskanyan.
According to him, it is also surprising for some of the community members demanding the return of the former director. “A fellow villager named Artak, who actively participates in the protests and defends the interests of former principal Esther Galstyan, had a problem with the latter and moved his two children to Khachatur Abovyan School # 4 in Vagharshapat. Now they see Hranush Grigoryan as a director along with some residents in the community. Shirazi Vard All this is being done to announce a new competition and to have a chemistry teacher at that school be appointed principal. If that is the case, the community may elect a director without announcing a competition, but without discrediting people. ”
Asked if he was ready to work as a headmaster at the school, Voskanyan said: “I am ready because they have to work with people and then get recognized. They are trying to sacrifice me for their own interests, but I will go and work. ”
It should be reminded that school teachers and students had gone on strike and strike, and the parents of the schoolchildren had blocked the Shirazi Vard school entrance and prevented the principal from entering the institution.
It should also be noted that on December 2 in the competition for the selection of the director of the educational institution the former principal Esther Galstyan received 4 votes and Shushanik Voskanyan received 3 votes, however, at the suggestion of the Deputy Prime Minister Tigran Avinyan and by the decision of the governor Shushanik Voskanyan was appointed director.
According to her, no one has the right to offend her.
“Who allowed me to offend myself? I got out of Baghramyan"s school with my head high, and they didn"t grab my hand and kick me out, as they say. Apart from Baghramyan, I have never worked as a principal in any school, but have Shirazi Vard participated in competitions and have not been elected. In 2012, the Baghramyan school was heavily involved in a government overhaul program that changed the windows and provided local heating. In 2018, the gym was renovated with the help of benefactor Efrin Pach and equiped with sports equipment. The gym also has a shower, provided with hot water. I have worked with the staff peacefully and in solidarity, no extraordinary cases have been registered at school, no one"s hair has bent over those nine years. "
