The objective of this research was to evaluate the perception of sustainability in students of a high school located in Texca, Guerrero. The methodology was quantitative; the survey technique was used using the Likert scale response option for 79 participants (34 men and 45 women). The scope was exploratory because it is a little studied phenomenon. The most outstanding findings show that, in the environmental dimension, 71 % of the students have favorable knowledge and attitudes towards environment care; in the social, 72 % are very satisfied with the performance of their teachers and the equipment conditions of the school facilities, even though they consider that better physical conditions are required to carry out their activities; in the economic area, 61 % agree with the payment of institutional fees, but would like to know how the collected resources are invested. This study concludes with the recognition of an adequate perception of environmental issues and sustainability by teachers and students at the middle school level in a rural community; however, it is also recognized that it is necessary to continue developing training processes with teachers.

Keywords : middle school education; education for sustainable development; perception; sustainability; teaching work.
