Racism is one of the social problems that most interfere in the daily relationships of human beings, especially with regard to the black population. This problem implies serious consequences in the coexistence between people, generating the need for interventions to be carried out in social areas for awareness and mutual respect, recognizing and valuing racial differences. The Education of Ethnic-Racial Relations, which is based on Law 10.639 / 2003, is one of the bases for the ethnic-racial theme to be discussed at school as a way of combating retrograde practices of racism and ideologies of race superiority. This case study, carried out in the interior of Bahia in high school, aimed to understand how the ethnic-racial approach has been in the environment and its influence on the daily lives of those involved. It was observed that students and educators have different perceptions about the treatment of black people in the school environment; that the school has not made significant inferences about the theme; that knowledge about the guidelines for the Education of Ethnic-Racial Relations is lacking; among others. From the findings, it appears that educational interventions and professional training are lacking for a discursive and practical approach on racial issues in the environment.   Keywords: Education; High school; Race Relations; Racism.
