The present article seeks to analyze public secondary education in Pará State, during Getúlio Vargas’ administration era. In this sense, the general objective is to identify the scenario of secondary education in Pará State from the educational routine of Colégio Paes de Carvalho (Paes de Carvalho School)/Ginásio Paraense (Paraense School). The methodological procedure of this study is characterized as documentary, having the documents of the institution as its sources, such as official letters and test schedules, as well as messages from the governors of Pará. The theoretical framework for analyzing the sources was composed by authors who discuss the educational routine of secondary education in Brazil during the Second Republic. The results show that the secondary education institution in Pará State was a reference for the education of the state’s youth from curricular practices guided by humanistic, scientific, and nationalist bases.
