Educational infrastructure projects and challenges are being reported across various Mexican states.

In the State of Mexico, developments have been mixed. Authorities in Zinacantepec delivered two new classrooms equipped with electrical installations, lighting, and seismic alerts to a primary school and a preparatory school. However, in Ixtaczoquitlán, parents at Cuauhtémoc Primary School reported a lack of functional classroom space, noting that students are forced to use improvised areas like offices or an auditorium due to insufficient facilities.

Broader infrastructure initiatives are also underway in other regions. In Oaxaca, construction has begun on five Margarita Maza National High Schools through a coordinated investment of approximately 99.57 million pesos. In Puebla, work has started on a covered civic plaza for secondary and baccalaureate schools in Olintla. Additionally, in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, local authorities announced plans to construct a new classroom at a technical secondary school to expand academic capacity.
