School closures, Thursday, September 18, 2025
The Philippines is currently grappling with Tropical Depression Mirasol, which has caused disruptions to daily life, including school schedules in several regions.
One of the regions affected is Cagayan Valley, where classes at all levels in the specific area of Cagayan have been suspended in Aparri due to the storm. The exact status of classes in other areas within Cagayan Valley remains unclear.
In the neighbouring Ilocos Region, several districts in Pangasinan have been affected. Schools in Mangatarem, San Jacinto, Umingan, and Mangaldan have either suspended classes or shifted to online learning for all levels, both in public and private institutions. In contrast, Mapandan offers public education at all levels, but the status of classes in other areas of Ilocos Region remains undetermined.
Elsewhere in Central Luzon, the town of Cabiao in Nueva Ecija has opted for face-to-face classes for all levels in both public and private schools. However, no specific information about the suspension of classes in other areas of Central Luzon is provided beyond Cagayan Valley and Nueva Ecija.
As the storm continues to move across the country, regional governors in other parts of the Philippines are yet to decide whether schools will be closed on Friday, September 18, 2022. Some areas have already suspended classes for Thursday, September 18, but the extent and locations of these suspensions are not specified.
