The type of research used in this project was explanatory, descriptive and relational. Explanatory because it determines the direct relationship between the dependent variable that is school motivation and the independent one that is academic performance; it is also relational since it establishes a correlation between said variables; and it is also descriptive because it presents the facts and the reality studied through the description of frequencies. The investigative modality studied was documentary, because it is based on the review of scientific articles from indexed journals, which support the work and it is field work due to the fact that the following information collection instruments were applied, such as the survey, interview and the observation guide, the same ones that are aimed at teachers and students. The focus of this project is quantitative-qualitative; we consider that it is quantitative because field information will be obtained which is tabulated and presented, through statistical tables and graphs, it is qualitative because the aforementioned data are analyzed and interpreted based on the elaboration of instruments that allow us to collect the information. Based on the results obtained by analyzing and reviewing the position of the authors, it can be stated that middle school students are going through a problematic situation of great impact that directly affects their academic performance, such data was verified in the survey and the observation guide for this reason it is of vital importance that the teacher apply new strategies that help improve their performance. It is necessary to make known that there are many factors that influence student performance, one of them is demotivation, it is worth mentioning that at home they have many problems but at school it is the place where they spend more time where they can identify and solve the problem mentioned, therefore parents from their homes must help motivate their representatives so that during their classes they find a high mood and can be active during class. In addition, the main source is the students Before, plus the author's criteria that supports the need to apply new strategies based on the well-being and improvement of the student, in such a way that in the long term it is reflected in their academic performance.
