This paper addresses the issue of life quality in the school environment as an importantcomponent of the citizen building. The survey was conducted in a public elementary school in SãoGabriel-RS. The data were collected through written questionnaires, aiming to investigate howaware the students are of their role in the society and of the fact that they can interfere to improvetheir reality. From the collected data it was developed a task in which the students were theprotagonists in the school reality changing process. From this task it was concluded that when thestudents are involved in the process they understand better their reality and that they are able toact in order to improve it. Listening to what the students have to tell is not only clarifying to theschool teachers and principal, but also the students themselves understand better their reality andstart figuring out how much they can act to improve it.
