A gestão democrática da escola: mobilização para o processo eleitoral do conselho escolar triênio de 2017 a 2020

Abstract

The present work intends to find answers to the questioning made regarding the very small participation of the Parobeana community when it was mobilized for the nomi-nation of names to elect the School Council and later when the electoral process was carried out. It is hoped to find out the reasons why we had few candidates, few vot-ers, and low community participation. In order to achieve our purposes, we opted for the qualitative research line, characterized by being a case study, of the research-action type, in which one seeks to transform the reality found. We have doubts as to whether the community knows the functions of the School Council, if they know its importance, if they know the current members of the Council and if they voted in this case. The financial resources employed were minimal once the questionnaires were sent via the internet to teachers, employees and students, collecting their opinions. And as for the results, we perceive the need for information, awareness, accountabil-ity and action to reach out to community participants, from the knowledge about what the School Council's functions are for the Democratic Management of the Public School, which is democracy that we live and how we should participate in it, so that in the future we will have a greater participation and that it be aware.
