This present study aims to investigate the preparation of school council members at Duque de Caxias's Municipal Schools derived from the city's affiliation to the National Program for School Councils Enhancement, coordinated by the Department of Basic Education from the Ministry of Education. Since the examination of the Program's actions and their identification pass by the macro, meso and micro levels of the educational system, the methodology comprised a bibliographical research, analysis of documents, construction and historical retrospective of the democratic management principle and the School Council principle; interviews carried out at MEC and at the Municipal Department of Education, interview with the principals of two schools of the Municipal sphere and a focus group with the School Council, besides observation in the schools. Based on the principle of democracy and the construction of the democratic practice in schools, by means of participative management, School Councils were considered representative segments as they are able to transform and maintain processes involving transparence, autonomy and the participation of the school community in its management. The verification of the Government Program actions on a national basis involving the cooperation among federal entities, enables the demythification of the distance among the spheres of the educational systems in this process including the capacitation of school counselors. The research revealed that, although Duque de Caxias's City has acceded to the Program, they haven‟t promoted any actions towards the preparation of their schools council members. Despite that, one of the observed schools in the study promotes an articulated dynamic in it's operation in relation to school and local and schoolcommunity participation in school management
