This text is the result of research that took as a reference testimony of telesecondary teachers in the state of Guerrero. In listening to the voices of teachers, we assume Arfuch’s (1995; 2018) perspective on the narrative interview. We understand violence as embedded in everyday life; teachers cope with it from day-to-day routines and practices, in such a way that maintaining the daily routine becomes an achievement (Das, 2018). Between silences forced by the conditions of violence in which they carry out their work, they maintain the possibility of continuing to educate. From the questions about how these teachers live the daily school day, and what allows us to understand their working conditions about the school in drug trafficking contexts, this text focuses on the silences in the testimonies of four teachers who carry out their work in telesecondary schools: the silence of loss; the silence of the affiliations; the silence of the curriculum and its translation in teaching.

Keywords : telesecondary schools; audio-visual based secondary school; teacher work; violence; silences.
