The education of children and youth in the rural areas, with the social movements of struggle for land, returns to a place of relevance and is repositioned on the political agenda. This study aims to analyze the process of development and implementation of a pilot project of schools in the rural area of the city of Araraquara, focusing on the subjects’ perception of the region. We adopted a qualitative ethnographic approach, with the following instruments of data collection: participant observation and semi-structured interviews. It was found that the project which was built through a process of struggle of a community in an adversarial relationship with the municipal government, which itself is struggling in an exercise of cultural emancipation and the construction of citizenship. Thus it finds itself in a habit of cultural resistance and in areas that has its effects on representation and social transformation within the community. Notwithstanding, those who participated in the process of the struggle and implementation have been transformed along the way, salvaging their self-esteem, history and a sense of belonging to a community.
