The need for conservation and protection of the environment is indisputable. To do so, individuals need to be made aware and, for this awareness to spread between present and future generations, it is important to work Environmental Education within the school. With this, the present work aimed to know the conceptions of students of the Basic Education of a public school about Environmental Education and its slopes belonging. Eight classes were selected and divided into four classes of elementary education and four classes of secondary education. Each class was represented by 20 students randomly selected, totaling 160 students and four teachers who were participants in the research. The work was done through the application of semistructured interviews / questionnaires for students and teachers, and the analysis of the curricular proposals for the approach of environmental education in the school. It was possible to diagnose that despite the age range of the students, they hold fragmented concepts and definitions regarding the subject. The school approaches environmental education in a way and in isolated moments, so it is considered that periodic and continuous work must be carried out. In this way, a continuous approach to the subject is necessary in public schools, making possible in a contextualized way the construction of knowledge and students committed to the natural environment.
