A total of 121 elementary and 21 junior high school buildings are scattered in Cugenang, Cianjur, and Pacet sub-districts.

He explained that there are damaged schools that are almost flattened to the ground, but his party still ensures that in a number of villages in Cugenang and Pacet sub-districts that are still isolated, while the application of online learning will be applied for one week. His party has not been able to confirm whether it is extended or not in accordance with the handling of a disaster emergency for 30 days.
