| Nam Can 1 Primary School has more than 400 students who are ethnic minorities of the Mong, Kho Mu and Thai ethnic groups, of which the Mong are the majority. On the first day of school, more than 100 first graders will be gathered in a separate class to disseminate the new textbook program. Photo: My Ha |

| To prepare for first graders, the school has prioritized projectors and spacious classrooms for them. Before the start of the new school year, the school proactively ordered enough textbooks for all students. Teacher Nguyen Thi Nguyet (who has worked in the mountainous district of Ky Son for 28 years) said: In the past, students in mountainous areas were often given free textbooks. However, this year the new program requires parents to buy textbooks themselves, so we are quite worried. Currently, there are enough textbooks for the children, but collecting money for books is still difficult. We will have to mobilize benefactors to support books for students from poor households and students in special circumstances. Photo: My Ha |

| For many parents, the fact that their children can go to school and study in a spacious school, the first national standard school of level 2 in the whole district, is a great joy. However, there are still worries and concerns. Photo: My Ha |

| From September 1, students started going back to school, but from the morning of August 27, all teachers of Nam Can 1 Primary School gathered to prepare for the new school year. The school has nearly 40 staff and teachers, but only 10 teachers live near the school. The rest are teachers from lowland districts working, and the travel conditions are extremely difficult. Teacher Dang Thi Hong - Vice Principal of the school shared. |

| This school year, teacher Bui Thi Thuy brought her son Nguyen Tien Minh from Dien Chau to study first grade at the school. Although this will be difficult for the child, especially in terms of integration, it will give her the opportunity to take care of him more often. Her husband is also a border guard currently working at the Nam Can International Border Guard Station. Photo: My Ha |

| According to industry regulations, the new school year will officially begin after September 5. But for teacher Nguyen Thi Toan Nhi, taking advantage of the first day of school, she reviewed the children's knowledge: This year I am in charge of grade 2 and my biggest worry is that the children are not yet proficient in Vietnamese. However, this morning I am very happy because the children have the awareness to practice and learn letters. Photo: My Ha |

Mr. Song Y Ly (Truong Son village) has a child who is in 2nd grade this year. He said: Because the child's parents work far away in Binh Phuoc, he takes care of the child's education at home. The first day he took the child to school, he went to see the homeroom teacher to ask about him and asked her for advice on buying books and pens. Photo by My Ha |
