This essay is about the Curso Normal , created at Colégio Sagrado Coração de Jesus, in Araguari, MG; founded and directed by the nuns from Congregação do Sagrado Coração de Maria (Congregation of Holy Heart of Maria). The period in the study ranges from 1930 to 1947, that is, from the beginning of the first class of course, to the date when the institution received the grant for teaching the Curso Normal 2° Ciclo (Theacher s Preparatory Course, High School Level, from the 1st to 4th year Primary Grades). This study aims to understand the creative process, and the consolidation of Curso Normal , by the observation of the faculty, the students and teaching bodies, the pedagogical activities and the knowledge transmitted during the daily activities at the school. The research was organized considering the bibliographical sources with pertaining subjects, public and private historical files, access to newspapers and iconography which included that period. Also, interviews and testimonies were collected from former students and teachers. This way, it was possible to glimpse the historical relevance presented by the School; it made it possible to recognize its meaning as much important in its location as in its history too, without loosing the more pertinent aspects. Considering the analyses and conclusions reached then, we understood that the opening and installation of the School was a part of the Catholic proposal to the rechristianization of the Brazilian nation; and by creating the Curso Normal in the institution, the young people would continue to receive the education already started in their homes and school. It aimed at more than making a professional career possible for women in the primary level; the nuns graduated female teachers, capable of transmitting the catholic faith to future generations: either as good mothers and wives, and / or good primary level school teachers.
