Noise is a pollutant that silently affects health and quality of life. Panama is a country in development with a high concentration of traffic. Here in Chiriquí, Boquete, we do not escape this nuance, especially Boquete's city center. This study seeks to know and analyze the impact that noise has in a high school's classrooms, as well as to know the perception of the educational community. Among the results obtained we found levels from 35.5 dB to 96.0 dB, which indicates high contamination in the classrooms; Also, the survey carried out on the educational community indicates that 55.8% are unaware of the levels allowed in classrooms and 67.4% were unaware of the laws that establish noise pollution levels in Panama.
