Análise do fechamento da Escola do Campo Bom Jesus, Vicinal Castanheira no Assentamento Jacundá – Pará

Abstract

This article analyzes the closure of the Bom Jesus municipal school, located in a rural settlement in the municipality of Jacundá, Pará, justified by the financial saving, in other words there is an impossibility of keeping the school in the field with a small number of students. From this perspective, the reflections of this policy on the experience of these subjects were evidenced, and the consequences for the community that had the school closed, where it interfered mainly in the daily life and learning of the students. The challenge of this work was to rescue this problem in order to understand how the school was closed and how the people perceive this policy. The methodology used was bibliographic research and furthermore a field research through interviews and application of semi-structured survey. The data pointed out the non-valorization of the schools and the individuals working on the field. Moreover, it was also noted that the closing led to the displacement of the students to another school of the city or a core school of the field, besides, we can observe that the school like many others were closed without any dialogue with the community residents.
