Many public high schools in Ho Chi Minh City have difficulty in recruiting additional grade 10. As of August 1, many schools such as Nguyen Thuong Hien High School, Phu Nhuan, Nguyen Hue, An Nhon Tay, Phong Phu... still lack dozens to more than 200 quotas but have received very few or no admission documents. Meanwhile, some schools such as Dien Hong, Nguyen Thi Dinh, Go Vap have nearly or exceeding the additional enrollment quota.

After the historic flood, Muong tip 2 Primary School (Ky Son District, Nghe An) was covered with mud, broken tables and chairs, and school equipment and the kitchen were washed away or severely damaged. The estimated damage is up to 1.8 billion VND - a huge number for border schools that are already lacking.

Teachers and border guards are making efforts to overcome the consequences, clearing the huge amount of mud with empty hands, bucking pots and shovels. Many teachers were exhausted and moved to see the scene of the school being devastated while the new school year was approaching. The biggest concern is that students cannot continue to attend boarding school, leading to a high risk of dropping out of school.

Muong tip 2 School is a bright spot in the boarding model for ethnic minority students, contributing to maintaining the student population in remote areas. The principal urgently called on the community to join hands to support the restoration of schools, because it is not only about overcoming facilities, but also preserving the future of students at the border.
