It is up to most schools individually to decide how to proceed.
The official infection tally in the latest wave of Covid-19 stands at 252 which is more than four times the number of cases in the first wave between March and June.
The alert level was raised on Friday as a result of the recent coronavirus propagation, with a record one-day spike of 46 cases.
The government said most Covid-19 cases were in Tahiti and Moorea, but one was now confirmed on Raiatea.
In mid-July French Polynesia abolished mandatory quarantine requirements for international arrivals to boost tourism.
However, the United States now discourages travel to Tahiti.
