Tijuana Schools Report No Bullying

In Tijuana’s municipal schools, zero severe bullying cases have been reported, with a focus on prevention and monitoring by teachers and a “Stop Bullying” program addressing incidents. Ongoing efforts highlight community awareness for prevention.

### No Severe Cases of Bullying Reported in Municipal Schools

In the municipal schools of Tijuana, there have been no severe cases of bullying, according to Andrea Ruiz Galán, the Municipal Secretary of Public Education. Ruiz Galán emphasized that all reported incidents have been closely monitored to prevent any regrettable outcomes.

Ruiz Galán clarified that while incidents reported in municipal schools are minor and addressed by teachers daily, a program called “Stop Bullying” has led to the reporting of 15 bullying cases in federal and state schools in Tijuana. She highlighted the importance of this program, which includes a mobile application providing information on addressing bullying situations within schools, facilitating ease of communication for both parents and students.

The Secretary also noted that the app has generated reports of cases not requiring authority intervention but stressed the importance of community awareness—parents, teachers, and students alike—to curb and prevent the escalation of such incidents.
