To the administrations of all official primary schools for boys and girls, kindergartens, and vocational

This Directorate emphasizes the necessity of following up with the owners of houses rented as schools to carry out
the necessary renovations during the summer vacation, as this Directorate does not wish to carry out
renovations after the schools open because that hinders the progress of teaching.
As for the school buildings belonging to the local administration, our Directorate will follow up on the renovations
and the additions of the rooms required to be built in them.

We have noticed recently that some school administrations have not followed
what was stated in our letter No. 15858 dated 6/30/957 and have started sending
documents by the hands of students for certification by us, which indicates a failure to read orders
and we emphasize the necessity of sending documents by the hands of your school employees with official letters
not by the hands of students for certification.
Students must also be warned not to visit this directorate regarding matters
related to documents.
We also remind you that the final exam results in most schools
have been published, yet we are still receiving school documents devoid of the information that must
be recorded in them regarding the appearance of results, which indicates the student's participation in
the final exam or the general exam, and whether the result was success, completion,
or failure. In the event that they have not appeared, we request that it be recorded in them, -
(( Participated in the final or general exam and the results have not appeared yet )).

Some school administrations are still sending us documents or transfer forms by hand via their owners

leads to the disruption of our work, we emphasize the necessity of sending school documents or transfer forms

of transfer not accompanied by an official letter. It is not permissible to give ⟦documents⟧ or transfer forms, even with letters,
