CLASSES in all levels in public schools will be suspended from May 2 to 13 to pave the way for the activities related to the May 9 elections, the Department of Education said on Monday

The suspension of classes is contained in DepEd Order No. 29 issued on August 5, 2021.

“Ang mga guro ay inaasahan pa ring mag-report sa kanilang paaralan sa mga araw na walang election-related duties o activities,” the department said.

“Ayon ito sa DepEd Order No. 29, s. 2021, na naglalaan sa mga nasabing araw para sa National Election-related activities ng mga guro at kawani ng DepEd,” the DepEd added.

The national elections will be held on May 9, 2022.

Meanwhile, School Year 2021-2022 will end on June 24, 2022.
