Private and state schools will be closed for 15 days; and those of the municipality for at least one week.
Next Monday (the 16th), classes in private and public schools in Rio de Janeiro will be suspended. The strike at schools in Rio City Hall should last at least a week. It is possible – and even plausible depending on the circumstances – that it extends until the end of March.
These units will open almost exclusively for children's lunch during this period. The cafeterias will serve students from 11:00 to 13:00.
The purpose of the measure is to reduce the movement of people. The municipal network has 626 thousand students; the state, 700 thousand.
Private schools will also stop for 15 days, according to the Private Schools Union.
