SAN JUAN City Mayor Francis Zamora will inspect and observe the resumption of face-to-face classes at the Pedro Cruz Elementary School on Thursday, February 10.

The school had its pilot run from kinder to grade three last year.

It will once again open its doors to children whose parents allowed them to attend face-to-face classes. This time, in-person classes will be expanded up to Grade 6.

The school was chosen because it passed the DepEd Schools Safety Assessment Tool.

To ensure the students’ safety, health and safety protocols will be strictly observed. Children will be seated far from each other and will be required to wear face masks at all times and to wash and sanitize their hands if needed.

Only vaccinated teachers will participate in physical classes.

“We are excited to have our children back in schools especially since we have started vaccinating children ages 5-11 years old,” Zamora said.
