    The present research, regarding "Sustained Attention and Reading Fluency in 7th Grade Students of the Gonzales Suarez Educational Unit," aimed to analyze the correlation between sustained attention and reading fluency in seventh grade students of basic secondary education, through the application of short reading and comprehension exercises. The methodology used has a mixed approach, that is, both quantitative and qualitative; the study adopted a cross-sectional design with exploratory, descriptive, and correlational levels. The sample employed consisted of 61 students between 11 and 12 years old from the aforementioned Educational Unit, who were selected according to specific inclusion criteria. Two standardized instruments were used: the CARAS-R test to assess sustained attention and the PLLE reading and written language test for reading fluency. The data analysis process was performed through SPSS software, employing nonparametric tests. The results show that 72% of the students had low or very low levels of sustained attention, and more than 70% showed poor performance in reading fluency. Significant correlations were identified between sustained attention and the lexical and comprehension dimensions, thus validating the alternative hypothesis. It is concluded that sustained attention acts as a structural condition for fluent and meaningful reading.
