\nThe school director Mr Muriz Halilovi\u0107 emphasised the importance of school reconstruction for students, professor and parents by saying: \u201eI could talk for days about the importance of energy efficiency and this project. The best indicators of successful project are the students who recorded the least absences from school caused by flu this year; very warm school premises, excellent and enthusiastic comments of employees who have worked in this school for many years and who remembered the winter period when it was practically impossible to work\u201c.
