EDUCATION - Schools Move Up Dismissal Times
Baccalaureate candidates during a review session. The panic sparked by recent cases of suspected disappearances is prompting several schools and universities to revise their schedules. As baccalaureate exams approach, administrators are seeking to preserve revision sessions while ensuring student safety. "As part of baccalaureate preparation, we cannot eliminate revision sessions. However, given the current situation, we also cannot keep students at school too long. We have therefore decided to move up dismissal time," says the director of a private school. At some institutions, classes are now held only in the morning to allow students to return home before late afternoon. These measures are being well received by parents. "We are naturally concerned about our children's safety. The fact that they can come home earlier reassures us, even if it requires new arrangements at home. The most important thing is that they continue their studies while staying safe," says Albertine, a parent. FJKM Ravelojaona University (Onifra) has also taken measures. For the past few days, classes end at 3 p.m., until further notice. These decisions aim to strengthen the safety of students, particularly those living far from campus who must make long journeys home. Mialisoa Ida
