Dafne Armenta

Dafne Armenta is the director of the primary school Mártires de Tacubaya in the Miguel Hidalgo borough of Mexico City. Recently, she has been in the news due to the enforcement of a ban on junk food sales in schools by the Secretaría de Educación Pública (SEP). As a response to this regulation, which includes significant penalties for non-compliance, she is adapting school traditions, such as replacing sweets with healthier options for celebrations like Día del Niño. Her efforts reflect the challenges schools face in balancing student preferences with health guidelines.
