Gia Lai: Students in the eastern region will be off school from the afternoon of November 5 to avoid storm No. 13.

To ensure maximum safety for students, staff, teachers and school employees, the Department of Education and Training requires all educational institutions in 58 communes and wards in the east of Gia Lai province to allow students to stay home from the afternoon of November 5 to the end of November 7 or until further notice.

For 77 western communes and wards, consider letting students stay home from school if the rain and storm situation becomes complicated.

During the school break, school principals must closely monitor weather information and require teachers, students, and parents not to travel to dangerous areas and to proactively take measures to ensure safety for themselves and their families.

In particular, schools must prepare facilities for local authorities to use as evacuation and storm shelters when necessary.

After the storm and floods pass, schools need to urgently repair damage, clean up and sanitize schools/classrooms immediately to ensure safety and not affect the 2025-2026 school year plan.
