Abstract

The research reflect on the relationship between school and family under the backdrop of democratic management. The study aimed to analyze the degree of reach of the family participation in school, taking as guiding thread the perspective of democratic management. How research problem, question: how school mobilizes the community to attend the pedagogic management, administrative and financial of the school? This is a qualitative research, which had as instrument of data collection the semistructured interviews. The reflexive analysis of the researched universe pointed out that school mobilizes the community, inviting her to join his dynamics to collect funds, by virtue of the so many demands that the school needs to account and of the few public funds that receives from the state. With this informations, evaluates that the degree of reach of family participation in school occurs by the bias of help and the collaboration, focusing, thereby, in financial orders issues. In the light of theoretical anchors countersigned, the research signaled that the reduction of community participation in fundraising for "sustain", financially, the school reaffirms the privatista logic of the education, such as the neoliberalism wish. Such a scenario points to the need to democratize the debate with the community to raising this logic - historically asleep of society –, in order to germinate in the new generations the outcry of struggle for social rights, including from the education, ensured by law. The effort turns back towards enlarging the understanding of that community participation goes beyond aid, which enables demystify the privatista logic in education, contesting what is really behind this kind of public policy.
