Mexicanos Primero Sinaloa launched the 'Días Sin Clases' platform to register interruptions of in-person classes in Sinaloa caused by violence, natural phenomena, and infrastructure problems, the organization said in a statement carried by 24 Horas on Sept. 3.[^1]

Nuria González Elizalde, general director of Mexicanos Primero Sinaloa, said the tool addresses a lack of sufficient information to dimension the phenomenon of school interruptions.[^2] Ángel Leyva Murguía, research director, said the platform does not allow determining the precise effects of suspensions on learning but offers evidence to formulate new questions.[^3] Carlos Gandarilla García, president of the chapter, said generating evidence allows supporting proposals to improve education and called for shared responsibility among authorities and society.[^4]

The chapter reported that at least one school in the state suspended classes for 57% of the 2025-2026 school cycle, equivalent to 105 of 185 days, according to a statement carried by El Universal on Sept. 2.[^5] González said 39.5% of interruptions were due to violence or insecurity, while 26.3% were caused by a lack of infrastructure and basic services.[^6] Leyva clarified that the platform does not demonstrate causal relationships or allow attributing specific effects on learning.[^7]
