'The new director also acknowledged that the initiative of the municipality of Rēzekne to pay secondary schools for the acquisition of a category B driving licence, which is a large plus, is welcome, so that young people, after primary school, choose to continue directly AT Kaunatas secondary school.

The new director remembers that the first TIME AT Kaunatas in high school was in 1971, as a small girl started in her first Cross competition. Now the ways of life brought them back to Kaunas. “Power is collective, so in the coming year i want to get a coherent team between teachers, parents and children. If i'm accepted as yours and say“ you're ours! ”“ It'll be the greatest satisfaction and motivation to continue, ”Alīna Gendell said.
It is recalled that the current Kaunatas High School Director, Skaidrīte Uzulina, has decided to continue working in an educational institution that is closer to her place of residence in the municipality of Preiles.
