Class Suspensions on Monday Across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao
Several local government units have announced class suspensions on Monday due to bad weather conditions affecting various regions. The class suspensions on Monday aim to ensure the safety of students amid adverse weather brought by easterlies influencing Southern Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
Class Suspensions on Monday in Luzon
In Luzon, face-to-face classes at all levels in both public and private schools are suspended in parts of Pampanga. Masantol and Angeles City have halted in-person learning to protect students from the effects of the ongoing weather disturbances.
Visayas Class Suspensions on Monday
In the Visayas, Pilar, Bohol, has shifted all levels of education in public and private schools to online and modular learning. This adjustment responds to the inclement weather, ensuring continuity of education while prioritizing safety.
Mindanao Class Suspensions on Monday
Several municipalities in South Cotabato have suspended classes across all levels in both public and private institutions. These include Surallah, Tampakan, Polomolok, T’boli, Banga, Lake Sebu, Tupi, and Norala. Additionally, General Santos City has also declared class suspensions for all educational levels.
Weather Conditions Prompting Class Suspensions on Monday
The state weather bureau reported early Monday that easterlies—warm winds originating from the Pacific Ocean—are currently affecting Southern Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao. These weather patterns have led to increased rainfall and unsettled conditions prompting local officials to suspend classes.
Weather expert Daniel Villamil noted that while Metro Manila and other parts of Luzon are expected to experience generally fair weather, the Visayas and Mindanao will see intermittent rains. Thunderstorm clouds may also cause showers during the late afternoon and evening, adding to the reasons for the class suspensions on Monday.
Community Response and Precautions
Local leaders emphasized the importance of these class suspensions on Monday to safeguard students and school personnel. They urged families to stay informed about weather updates and to follow official advisories to remain safe during the unsettled weather conditions.
Parents and guardians were also encouraged to monitor their children’s learning arrangements as some schools have shifted to online and modular modes to continue education amid the weather challenges.
