The objective of this work was to describe the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) on Mexican high school students. For this, the methodology used consisted of an exploratory research with a quantitative approach of non-experimental design, cross-sectional and with a descriptive scope. For data collection, a questionnaire was applied as a survey that allowed characterizing the behavior of the phenomenon based on four dimensions: technological infrastructure, training, social-economic and health field, and digital skills. The reliability of the instrument was determined by Cronbach's alpha coefficient, which provided satisfactory results. Among the results, it stands out that, in most cases, students have the appropriate technological infrastructure to continue with the learning processes in a virtual way, as well as the digital skills for the use of applications that promote communication. And regarding the effects caused to health caused by sanitary measures, it was detected that most of the students presented some type of affectation, mainly of an emotional nature. In conclusion, the pandemic has generated a negative impact on the health of students; however, skills related to information and communication technologies (ICTs) have been promoted and exercised, which have made it possible to continue the development of school activities from home.
