The school is Nataliia Hryhoruk's second home, and the students and teachers are like family.  She has a lot of experience behind her - 48 years of teaching experience and the rank of... police major! Because she once devoted decades of her life to the Law Lyceum of the National Academy of Internal Affairs.

The Hryhoruk family met the full-scale invasion in Kyiv region, where they were saving their children first. Nataliia has five grandchildren, and they were taken abroad. Two months later, they returned home. 

In 2023, the Museum of Civilian Voices held an all-Ukrainian essay competition called My Ukraine.  Participants submitted four thousand creative works. Nataliia joined the project as a teacher. She and her colleagues are currently working to preserve the memory of those who died in the war.
