“Naming the school after such an outstanding person as Musa Jalil is an important event. His contribution and significance to history cannot be overestimated. He brought joy to people in peacetime and fought on the front during the war, meeting his death with courage,” noted Albert Zulkharnayev.
Musa Jalil is a famous Tatar poet who was executed by the fascists in 1944 by guillotine in the Berlin Plötzensee prison for participating in the underground organization of the Moabit concentration camp.
His collection of poems "Moabit Notebooks" received the Lenin Prize in 1957.
In the summer of 2024, a stele in honor of Musa Jalil was installed at the building of school No. 29.
