Mesolongi: Student gave nationwide when his father was killed

A human tragedy took place in Mesolongi on Friday morning while giving Nationwide Examinations the son of a military man involved in a deadly car accident.

Specifically, the minor was in one of the ranks of the 2nd Messolonghi High School, when the teachers were informed of the fatal one. The dilemma was large, as they had to decide how to manage the incident and whether they had to immediately inform the child or let him first complete the exam.

The morality and sensitivity of teachers and supervisors, however, has helped the child to be informed at the right time and with the required discretion that requires such moments.

With complete respect for human pain and the student’s struggle, they chose not to disturb his tranquility. His mother had come to school, waiting for him outside the room and informed him of his father’s loss.

The school was discreetly informed that the father’s father who was being examined at that time lost his life in a car accident
