Mexico border schools open their doors to migrant children so they can continue their studies

Schools on the northern and southern borders of Mexico have opened migrant children of Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, so that they do not lose their right to education.

The miners look in the classroom for a new opportunity to continue growing after months adrift in Mexican territory, this due to various restrictions that do not allow them to enter the United States realizing the “American dream”.

One of these campuses is the Pascual Ortiz Rubio Elementary School, located in City Juarez Chihuahua, considered the national premiere by opening its doors to children on the move.

Dora Espinoza, principal of the school, detailed ECE that minors receive a certificate so that they can continue their studies in their next destination, whether it is the United States, their country of origin or if they decide to stay.

In 2022, the government of Mexico registered 70 thousand 19 minors as “irregular migrants”, of which a fifth were traveling unaccompanied. Likewise, the American administration expelled more than 217,000 minors to Mexican territory.
