The article reflects on the school expansion for the popular segment in Brazil in order to answer the questions about institutional aspects on Brazilian public schools and their capability to teach and educate a democratic society: what has been the direction of the Brazilian public school? Has it has been creating an environment able to teach and educate a democratic society? After highlighting the State’s role in the process of affirming school socialization and in the task of accomplishing important social reforms, posteriorly pointing out changes in the functions of the school, the article concludes that the slow process of democratization of education and the weakening undergone by their constitution revealed the possibility of failing to create a school culture that establishes conditions for valuing individual and social characteristics of students in learning.

Keywords : school socialization; school culture; low income students.
