municipalização do ensino fundamental em Santa Catarina e os reflexos para as escolas rurais multisseriadas de Concórdia

Abstract

This article discusses the history of multisseradas rural schools in Concordia/SC, in the context of descentralization policies, through the municipalization and nucleotion of education, from 1980.These schools accomplished the goal of schooling/literacy. The research derives from bibliographic and documentary nature. The dialectical historical materialistic conception is the search north in view of the real movement in its entirety, in which the particular is explained in the socioeconomic-political context, dialectically related. We verified that the descentralizing position was made explicit in the State Education Plan/SC (1980/1983) of the Jorge Bornhausen government and reinforced in the Amin Government (1982-1986) with the participatory planning process. The Constitution/1988, the LDBEN/1996 and the creation of FUNDEF/1996 are the milestones of the new decentralizing logic that emphasizes the responsabilities of the municipal, state and federal spheres for education. By means of municipalization, the State of SC transfers to the municipalities the commitment to maintain elementar education. In Concordia, through the 111/91 Agreement, 46 schools are municipalized, being 45 multigrade and the one school group. In 1998, a second stage municipalized 4 rural basic schools which became nuclei to receive students from disabled schools. In short, there is a relationship between the process of municipalization, the deactivation of rural schools and the nucleation, which meet the neoliberal policies of economic rationalization, at both the state and municipal levels, despite of the discourse that this policy would provide the improvement of quality of education.
