Kilimanjaro Regional Commissioner, Nurdin Babu revealed at the weekend that only 87 per cent of all Form Ones had reported to school, since they reopened on January 9, this year.
Speaking at an occasion to hand over digital tablets to teachers in Same District, Babu said his office would embark on a special operation of flush out those whom he suggested, could be hiding in their homes.
According to Babu, it is understood that some of the missing students had opted for private schools after shunning public schools.
He asserted that while this is not a problem, the low enrolment is still alarming.
Babu also urged teachers to closely work with parents and guardians with a view of addressing the decay of morality in the society.
