AGUILAR ZEPEDA, Rodrigo. Attendance and school progress of the 1.5 generation in the State of Mexico. Comparative analysis in the period 2000-2015. An. antropol. [online]. 2021, vol.55, n.1, pp.83-96.  Epub 16-Maio-2022. ISSN 2448-6221.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iia.24486221e.2020.0.72800.

The phenomenon of American children living in Mexico, particularly in the State of Mexico, is not new. Their number has been registered since 2000, increasing notably as a result of the escalating return migration at the national level that affects the state level. By 2015 there is a decrease in the amount, however, those who arrived in 2010 are still present in the country. Being underage, these children have the right to access the school system in the State of Mexico. How is that process? Previous investigations have detected administrative, cultural, economic, and educational barriers, among others, in the process of incorporation and integration of children from the United States at school. For this reason, this article proposes to identify and socio-demographically characterize the underage US population living in the State of Mexico, emphasizing the analysis of school attendance and academic performance, which translates into detecting access and permanence in the State Educational System. The methodological strategy is of a quantitative nature, based on the processing and analysis of the XII General Census of Population and Housing 2000, of the Population and Housing Census 2010 and of the Intercensal Survey 2015, by the National Institute of Statistics, Geography and Informatics.
