This study analyzes narratives of Gersy, a school teacher whose memories help understanding about how schools were set up in rural areas of Lomba Grande, Novo Hamburgo, RS. Cultural practices in this research aim to reconstruct the history of education in this place, between the time when Gersy joins the school as a student in 1931 until the beginning of his life as a teacher in 1940. Halbwachs (2006), among others, helps link between memory and the socio-historical context rebuilt from the perspective of cultural history. The set of empirical indicators shows a knowledge embedded in that community to make teaching and community mobilization for the children of the settlers who had school. In developing the analytical procedures are perceived limits and possibilities also in memory usage. Among the conclusions, the question still remains: could the school group in a rural area in German be associated with the "nationalization policy" that characterized the government of Getúlio Vargas?

Keywords : history of education; memory; rural education; teaching practices; public school.
