The Secretariat of Public Education (SEP) in Mexico has updated its Operational Guide to modify school honor guards (escoltas escolares) across all educational facilities in Mexico City, starting in the upcoming school year. This decision ends a tradition that originated over a century ago during the presidency of Porfirio Díaz.
The regulatory update marks a significant shift in how these traditional school ceremonies and formations will be handled within the capital's educational system, dismantling a practice that has endured for more than a hundred years.
