Akori School Still Waiting for New Election for Principal

12:36, May 30, 2012

Silva Simonyan has been serving as the Acting Principal of the Akori village school for the past four months.

The school in Armenia's Lori Marz was thrown into confusion after a December 20, 2011 vote for a new scholl principal by the governing board. Teachers contested the vote, arguing that the election was rigged, and went on strike.

They went back to work on February 8, 2012, after Anahit Mousayelyan, who had been elected the new principal, handed in her resignation. The Lori Regional Governor then appointed Simonyan to step in as acting principal until the matter could be resolved.

A new election was scheduled to take place within three months of February 8.
