It is possible that Marcos will declare 2 January 2024, which falls on a Tuesday, as an additional special non-working holiday similar to his announcement regarding 26 December 2023 earlier this week. Vice President and concurrent Education Secretary Sara Duterte-Carpio, for her part, previously released an order indicating that classes will resume from its two-week holiday break by January 3, 2024.
