Rodríguez also highlighted the trajectory of the San Pío X School, founded in 1969, considering it a benchmark in the academic and human formation of generations of students. "The link between education and sport must be strengthened every day, because it is in schools where many children have their first approach to different sports disciplines," he expressed. Likewise, it was pointed out that INEFI will continue to develop initiatives aimed at guaranteeing adequate sports spaces in educational centers, promoting physical activity and the integral development of students. With this intervention, the San Pío X School strengthens its capacities for carrying out sports and recreational activities, benefiting its entire student community.
