To Explore the Manifesto "To the Professorship of Minas Gerais"published in the Journal of Commerce in 1900 is the horizon of this research. This effort meant to think the participation of teachers and their actions and reactions, before and after the production of the Manifesto as a constituent of the process of professionalization of the teacher. The Manifesto was addressed "To the Professorship of Minas Gerais" and its main characteristic was the calling for union between them. Here, we discuss the Manifesto s content from the issues observed in its elaboration, as the mention of creating an association of teachers. Added to this, we tried to understand the working conditions of teacher s signatories and non-participants of the document, in order to understand the norms that they were subject, in an attempt to clarify what meant to be a teacher at that time. Still, we tried to understand which would be the motivations of producing the Manifesto. In the same vein, we quested constructing the trajectory of the four signatories, from the relationships they had in the city of Juiz de Fora, the circles they attended and positions held by them before and after the publication of the Manifesto. For this, we realized the presence of four teachers in a diverse and dispersed set of documents, which undertook an effort of comparing all that sources, and allowed us to construct a biographical profile of the positions occupied by these subjects. Finally, we undertook a movement of reflection on the public that the Manifesto was intended, in this case, the teachers. We noticed a universe of action of these subjects in the city from claims, demands and requests, as well as people like residents, who did not teach professionally, but recognized the importance of teachers and public education. We used sources that allowed us observing this movement, as the Jornal do Commercio and Correio de Minas, two relevant state s journals. The teachers trajectory was constructed from the requirements, correspondence between teachers and city chamber, school inspectors reports and the undersigned produced by residents. The study concluded that that the actions, reactions and many forms of acting teachers, including the Manifesto, constituted themselves as an important movement in the process of professionalization of teaching and the making of as category. It aims to contribute thereby to the field of History of Education, incorporating the studies dealing with the status of the teaching profession.
