Terremoto: scuole evacuate, tanta la paura

Earthquake alarm also went off in schools when, around 9:40 a.m. Thursday morning, the magnitude 4.1 tremor toppled desks and chairs, causing some students, teachers, and staff to become ill. The alarm was raised, and schools implemented regular evacuation procedures. Some schools resumed classes within minutes, while others, including the Petrocchi Art School, closed the school day early as a precaution. In addition to the Petrocchi School, the Cino da Pistoia and Raffaello Institutes also decided to send students home.
