RESUMO

The question question that entitles this paper (Programa Escola da Familia Is it possible to educate to the citizenship?) motivated visits, on weekends, throughout the year 2007, to ten public schools of the São Paulo State, in the capital city São Paulo, to observe the School of Family Program (Programa Escola da Família PEF). A lively and dynamic parallel universe to formal school was discovered, chained to post modern values, whose consequence is an education for the practice of citizenship which, for being so fragmentary and free of more severe execution criteria, ends up to educate, but not on the point of forming real citizens. Thus, this education for citizenship practice deals with what we called an educational bridge built halfway on interrupted in the middle. This idea has led to a second question: Is it possible, then, to complement and conduct it to the purpose to which it was destined: to form a school community aiming at the critical and conscious practice of citizenship? Basing on significant data collecting, from attendance, papers and testimonies, both the positive and negative aspects of this Program have been emphasized. It was also attempted to offer viable suggestions to answer this second question, in what the importance of the Program, as an opportunitty to the informal education, is pointed out, with potential to change the organizational climate of shool (its invisible curriculum) for the better. And everything, in the dissertation, was done trying not to lose sight of the poetic tone that, the educational happening in a rough environment, as that of the Program, inspires.
