Abstract

Research on school performance based on health indicators of High School students is a topic that has been addressed for several years, however, the novelty lies in the need to address it in a comprehensive and multidisciplinary manner, considering not only the academic dimension, but also the health dimension of students. Currently, there is a growing concern for the health and well-being of students, and it is recognized that health and academic performance are closely related. Therefore, research on school performance based on health indicators of secondary education students is a relevant and novel topic in the field of education and public health. In addition, the development of information and communication technologies has allowed the collection and analysis of large amounts of data, which provides the opportunity to conduct more accurate and comprehensive research in this field. Likewise, the integration of different disciplines such as medicine, psychology, pedagogy and epidemiology, among others, has allowed a broader and more complex understanding of the problem of school performance based on health indicators. The population in this case is the students of Valentín Gómez Farías High School, Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico. The sample is a simple random sample of students. In addition, it was possible to verify that research on this topic can contribute to improve the process of school performance of students in the institution.
