Michoacán officials deliver student aid in Tingüindín

Education officials Patricia Flores Anguiano and Mario Delgado Carrillo delivered more than 750 pairs of sneakers to students at the Francisco J. Múgica Federal Secondary School in Tingüindín, Michoacán. This distribution is part of the ‘Jalo a Estudiar, Jalo por La Paz’ program, which aims to reduce the economic burden on families and encourage students to complete their studies.

The initiative is part of a larger state goal to provide 202,000 pairs of sneakers to secondary students in the region. Over the last four school cycles, more than 800,000 pairs have been distributed. Additionally, the program includes the Rita Cetina Scholarship, part of a package of 842,000 supports across all educational levels, and the distribution of 10,000 guitars to over 600 secondary schools to promote arts and culture.

Officials noted that these efforts, supported by President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo through the Michoacán por la Paz y la Justicia Plan, are intended to strengthen school retention and facilitate the transition to higher secondary education.
