The last call in most regions of Russia will be held in person. This is evidenced by the responses of 25 regional ministries of education to Izvestia. But restrictions due to COVID-19 still cannot be avoided. Each class will celebrate the holiday separately, and parents in some regions will be allowed to attend only if they are vaccinated. The epidemiological situation makes it possible to hold full-fledged celebrations on the street, where the likelihood of contracting the coronavirus is low, experts say.
The classes will not meet
In most regions of Russia, the last call will take place offline, but with different coronavirus restrictions. This conclusion can be drawn from the responses of 25 regional ministries of education to Izvestia. Basically, restrictive measures will affect the participation of graduates of several classes and their parents in the ceremony.
For example, in the Tambov region the holiday takes place on May 21 and 22. Most schools will hold ceremonial assemblies. Moreover, each of them can independently choose the format and date of the last calls. Whether parents will be present at the ceremonial events will be decided by the head of the educational institution. Its decision, in turn, depends on the epidemiological situation in a given school, Izvestia was told by the press service of the Department of Education and Science of the Tambov Region.

In the Saratov region, the event will also be held in person, in compliance with the recommendations of Rospotrebnadzor, the regional Ministry of Education reported.
— Small-scale schools will be able to invite students from different grades, and possibly parents of graduates. And in large schools, where it is impossible to accommodate students taking into account social distancing, only graduates of one class and, possibly, their parents will be able to attend the ceremony. Also, in such schools, it is recommended, if necessary, to separate the line for 9th and 11th grades,” the press service quoted the acting director as saying. Regional Minister of Education Mikhail Orlov.
In the Sverdlovsk region, ninth graders are recommended to limit themselves to formal classroom hours. For eleventh grade graduates, it is proposed, if possible, to hold events outdoors - on school grounds.

“This will allow everyone to meet at the holiday, and also invite parents. In addition, this format meets the requirements of anti-terrorism security,” the region’s information portal reports.
In Sevastopol, parents will be able to attend the event only by appointment, media previously reported.
How to celebrate Last Call Day.
If you want to celebrate Last Call Day, you should tell the whole class or the head of the parent committee. In any case, students must consult with their parents so that they can be released on this day as a whole class, so it is still worth making this proposal at a parent-teacher meeting if the parents themselves have not guessed about it.
You shouldn’t be like the airborne troops who dive into fountains while intoxicated and get rowdy on their holiday. It’s worth setting an example to everyone around you that school graduates can have fun without hooliganism, prove this to other graduates, yourself and each other, have a beautiful holiday with non-alcoholic juice! Moreover, everything has been accompanying this since 2013, even the sale of alcoholic beverages on May 25 is now prohibited.
The whole school, divided into classes, go for a walk to an amusement park, a city park, or go to the city if you are from a rural area. You can go to the circus, remembering your childhood, sit in a cafe, remembering school incidents, exchange phone numbers, talk about the future and arrange a meeting of graduates now. In principle, you can come up with something for yourself: a movie, for example. If there is such an opportunity, then go with the whole class to another city, relax, or even for a couple of days at sea before the final exams.
Attention to mood
In several regions, Izvestia was told that security measures would be strengthened when holding ceremonies on school grounds. Thus, in Udmurtia, on May 22, the day of the holiday, the sale of alcohol will be limited, the surrounding areas of the school will be searched every three hours for the presence of foreign objects, special attention will be paid to access control in buildings, and additional instructions will be given to employees on what to do in the event of a threat of emergency.
“Also, the attention of class teachers will be drawn to children’s communication on social networks, to their mood in general,” the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic reported.
Safety in schools should of course be a priority. The main thing is that anti-terrorist measures do not become too strict, Anatoly Vyborny, deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption, noted in a conversation with Izvestia.

It is necessary to effectively use those means that have proven their effectiveness. It is impossible to strengthen control measures and turn the school into a military unit. Security measures should not put pressure on children or depress the psyche of minors, the expert warned.

“Professional security has shown effectiveness in ensuring safety in schools,” he noted. — Good results are achieved through preventive measures. For example, in Moscow the preventive rate ranges from 30 to 70%. Unfortunately, it is less in the regions.
The Committee of Education and Science of the Kursk Region also expressed special attention to security measures to Izvestia. The publication sent a request to the Ministry of Education with a request to talk about recommendations for the last bell for schools.

CELEBRATION.
Warm, spring days warmed by the sun. These are beautiful, fine days! And the last blaring school bells sound with the trill of the nightingale! The bells are ringing, ringing, shimmering, They sound for us for the last time! This is how the school tenderly bids us farewell, And blesses us on a good journey!
On May 25, the school celebrated the Last Bell holiday, which is not marked in red on the calendar, but is celebrated throughout Russia - this is a holiday when the last school bell rings for our ninth-graders.
Three and a half thousand calls covered school years. None of them were like the other. Some hurried to the first lesson, some called to your favorite teacher, some helped out at a tragic moment when you were called to the blackboard, but you didn’t want to go there at all... There were completely inappropriate calls during a test, when everything was already It almost worked, but I have to turn in the notebook. And, to be honest, there were such welcome, incomparable calls at the end of the school day, quarter, year... It seemed like there would be no end to them! But now the time has come for the Last Call.
This holiday is dedicated to those who are looking for new, untraveled roads in life in order to boldly walk along them.
So, school childhood has passed for 10 students and female students of our school.
A solemn day full of special meaning and significance. Now grown-up girls and boys are crowding into the school corridor, where in just a few minutes the last bell will ring for the last lesson in their school lives. Even the most inveterate hooligans are trying to get used to the role of the main heroes of the occasion.
Solemn congratulations from the director and administration, parting words from teachers who, over so many years spent at the school, have become almost like family, a touching speech from parents and response words from equally excited graduates. And, of course, parting words and congratulations to the guys, who look with some envy at the graduates, who seem so mature and independent to them.
Songs and poems about the last bell flow over the festive school.
And here is the climax.
Graduate Alexey Zh. and 1st grade student Magomed A. give the last bell for the last lesson.
The last bell rings, opening the door not only to school, but also to adulthood. Balloons with dreams and wishes of graduates rush into the sky. As a souvenir of school days, there will be photographs with interesting excerpts from school life. The last call is, after all, a holiday that marks the beginning of a new stage in life, a transition into the unknown, but so alluring world of adult problems and relationships. So let the Last Bell holiday forever remain a bright and joyful memory.
We wish our graduates success in their studies and work, clear skies, bright sunshine, and good mood! We believe that school will always be their home!
Senior counselor I.P. Voinova.

Celebration traditions
In most schools, on the eve of the last bell, the assembly hall and the courtyard are decorated. They draw wall newspapers that tell about the everyday school life of each class. Special clothing also belongs to the traditional attributes - Soviet-style school uniforms with aprons for girls (boys, as a rule, wear a formal suit).
Recently, sometimes graduates prefer to attend the holiday in more modern outfits. Nevertheless, lush white bows in the girls’ hair are just as integral an attribute of the solemn event, as are the wide scarlet ribbons with the inscription “Graduate” used by schoolchildren, as well as bells attached to clothes and then carefully preserved.

The ceremony to celebrate the last bell consists of two parts - official and free. During the first, congratulations are heard for future graduates, teachers, head teachers and the director speak. In addition, the program held in the schoolyard provides for the actual “last bell” - for this ceremony, one of the graduating boys and a small first-grader are selected - she, holding a large bell, is carried on the graduate’s shoulders.
Then schoolchildren can celebrate their holiday more informally. Dressed up students traditionally walk in the city center, take souvenir photos, and release balloons into the sky. Also, in some schools, entire classes are sent to sanatoriums and rest homes for the last bell.
