A total of two elementary schools (SD) in Kapanewon, Lendah District in Kulon Progo Regency were flooded due to heavy rains in the area from Wednesday, January 25 to early Thursday, January 26.

Head of the Kulon Progo Education, Youth and Sports Office, Arif Prastowo, said that the two SDs that were submerged in water were SD Bonosoro Jatirejo and SD Juruk Sidorejo.

"We have coordinated with the Kulon Progo BPBD and the school. Today we are cleaning," said Arif in Kulon Progo, Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY), Thursday, January 26, as reported by Antara.

According to him, the flood that inundated Jeruk Sidorejo Elementary School made classrooms also submerged. Including the teacher's room and the school field.

Meanwhile, at SD Bonosoro, the water did not enter the classroom, it just stagnated in the yard.

"Currently, the building team assisted by the community around the school is cleaning up mud and school infrastructure that is submerged in water," said Aris.

Arif admitted that every time there was heavy rain with high intensity, two schools were submerged in water because they were close to the irrigation canal. However, his party has no discourse on relocating the school.

"Until now, we have no plan to relocate this school," he said.
