At present, Mon Son Secondary School has 72 students who are Dan Lai ethnic people. Seeing that many students live far from school, local government and functional agencies have built a dormitory for students and give them a meal allowance of VND 18,000 per day each. Reportedly, most of them are from poor families. Therefore, they have encountered many difficulties when living in the dormitory. Some even want to drop out of school.

They have organized sports, cultural and artistic activities and conducted law dissemination and education activities among students in the dorm, and more.
Also, Mon Son Border Station has honored outstanding students with excellent academic and training results to motivate them during their studies.
