Educação e comunidade: Análise das trajetórias escolares exitosas de duas alunas egressas de uma escola municipal da comunidade Entra Apulso

Abstract

The objective of this work was to analyze the influence of the “Entra apulso” community municipal school in the school trajectory of two female students, and as specific objectives to describe the life histories of two female students of the institution and their school development and to understand the influence of school agents in the academic formation of egressed students. In this sense, we sought to examine the influence of education on the successful personal and professional experiences of two egressed students, in unfavorable social contexts, of a public school located in a low-income community, where they reside. The research sought to highlight the magnitude of education for the formation of the subject and their preparation for citizenship, their professional qualification, and especially for overcoming social inequalities, constitution of their identity, and participation in the construction and modification of society. For this, it was based on the following authors: Fonseca (2011), Brandão (2001), Silva (2010), Freire (2000), Santiago (2006), Meirieu (2005), among others. The methodology used in the research was the oral history, of qualitative character and used as the main instrument of data collection the partially structured interview. Two egressed students were interviewed, using the technique of oral history, in order to understand through their eyes what is the performance of education and school in their personal and professional lives. In the life story of the egress student Daniela, we noticed the remarkable influence of the Municipal school throughout its school trajectory, not only while she was studying at school in the early years, but also by the relationship that she maintained over the years resulting from the Institution. Maria's life story, on the other hand, points to a strong connection with the Entra Apulso community and also with the municipal school.
