30th May 2018, Gasa:
Today, 11 students from 3 schools in Gasa were honored with Royal Certificates for Academic Excellence for the academic year 2017 at the Bjishong Central School.
Before the award, opportunities were offered to the students to reflect on “Why” these certificates for excellence were initiated from the Golden Throne. Few students shared their views with a common expression that these certificates inspire and encourage the students to study hard and do very well academically. Dzongda said, it is indeed a great honor and a matter of highest pride to the students, their parents, teachers, school, and Dzongkhag to receive these invaluable certificates signed by His Majesty The King. Therefore, he said it should be natural for every student to aspire to get the Royal signatured certificate. While only one (the overall class topper) from each class will get the special certificate, but in the process, the Nation will have more students excelling in academics, which would have a big positive impact to the Nation Building.
Congratulations and Tashi Delek to all the recipients of the Certificate of Academic Excellence from His Majesty The King.
