    Sleep quality is essential for the well-being and overall health of adolescents, as it influences their physical, mental, and emotional development, as well as their academic performance and long-term physical health. In this context, the objective of this study focused on describing the sleep quality of tenth-grade students of basic general education at the Unidad Educativa Particular “Nuestra Familia” during the 2024-2025 academic period. Due to the small size of the population, the study worked with all the students, who are approximately 40. A quantitative methodology with a descriptive approach and a non-experimental cross-sectional design was used. For this purpose, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to evaluate various aspects of sleep. In addition, sociodemographic data such as gender, age, bedtime and wake-up time (on school days and weekends), and screen time were collected. The information collected was statistically analyzed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) program. The results obtained indicate that 66% of the students had good sleep quality, with differences according to age and gender, highlighting better quality in men and adolescents aged 14 years. Going to bed early and limiting the use of screens (5-15 hours per week) will promote rest, while late hours and greater exposure to devices had a negative impact. These findings highlight the importance of promoting healthy sleep habits.
