March 25th: Student Absences and Parades - What's the Rule?

With the national anniversary of March 25th approaching, interest in school celebrations is increasing. This year, March 25th falls on a Wednesday. Celebrations for students last two days, with the eve of the holiday dedicated to school events.

Attendance at the March 24th events is considered mandatory. Absences are considered unjustified, as the events are part of the educational process. Schools organize events with poems, songs, and theatrical performances about the 1821 Revolution.

Parade rehearsals are expected to begin in mid-March. Participation in the parade is not mandatory, but attendance is binding for those who have been selected. Absences from classes due to rehearsals are excused.

Students who have been selected for the parade but are absent without a valid reason may face sanctions.
