The Angeles City Government has announced updated guidelines for the suspension of classes in both public and private schools during inclement weather.
Under the new policy, schools in the cityโwhether under the Department of Education (DepEd) or privately managedโare now authorized to independently suspend classes based on their localized conditions.
This development comes following a meeting with DepEd and the Angeles City Association of Private Schools (ACAPS), where it was also agreed that Senior High School students (Grades 11 and 12) will now be included in class suspensions once Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal No. 2 is raised in the city.
Here is the revised guideline for class suspensions:

Public and private schools that opt to suspend classes are required to inform the Angeles City Information Office (CIO) of their decision. The CIO will then publish a list of schools that have declared suspensions via the cityโs official Facebook page.
The Angeles City Government thanks all Angeleรฑos for their continued cooperation and understanding.
