TCA Arshag Dickranian School
Starts Its 2011 - 2012 Academic Year
Los Angeles, September 1, 2011 - Following the example of several unified
school districts, this year the traditional `Back to School Day' ceremony
of the TCA Arshag Dickranian School's 31st academic year took place on
August 29, 2011 at 8:15 a.m., a full week earlier than usual.
The event took place at the open courtyard of the campus where students
ranging from Pre-Kindergarten toddlers to 12th Grade seniors had gathered
under the guidance of their teachers and the watchful eyes of their
parents. Among the guests were St. John Armenian Church parish priest Fr.
Manoug Markarian, school benefactress Mrs. Cynthia Norian, Board Chairman
Mr. George K. Mandossian, Vice Chairman Mr. Parsegh Kartalian, Board
Treasurer Mrs. Angine Garibyan and Board Member Mr. Diran Depanian.
Principal Vartkes Kourouyan started the program by extending his greetings
to the students, teachers and parents alike, and then called upon Fr.
Markarian to conduct the morning prayers and give his blessings. He then
invited Mrs. Norian to share her thoughts. `My parents founded this school
so that children like you could learn the Armenian language and history.'
She said. `You are the legacy of the Armenian heritage. I have full
confidence in your diligence and wish you an industrious school year.'
Chairman George Mandossian next got to the podium to express his welcoming
remarks on behalf of the School Board of Trustees. After greeting the
students, the teachers, the parents and working committees, he touched
upon the challenges the board was facing due to the ongoing economic
crisis and called for the cooperation of all to ensure the success of the
scholastic year.
The program was concluded with the closing remarks of principal Kourouyan
who wished the students success in their endeavors and declaring the new
scholastic year open. He then invited parents to enjoy the coffee and
assortment of cookies served by the PTO while students were directed to
their classrooms.
