Classes in all levels in public schools are suspended from May 2 to 13 due to activities related to the May 9 national elections, the Department of Education (DepEd) announced on Monday.

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

"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 said.

"Ang mga guro ay inaasahan pa ring mag-report sa kanilang paaralan sa mga araw na walang election-related duties o activities."

(This is based on DepEd Order No. 29, s. 2021, which allots the said dates to National Election-related Activities of teachers and DepEd personnel. All teachers are still expected to report to their respective schools on days when they don't have election-related duties or activities.) —KBK, GMA News
