This article is about the role of school in the socialization of foster children in foster care institutions. The objectives were to investigate the role of the school in the process of building the identity and socialization of the foster children; to know the trajectory of the creation, implementation and consolidation of foster care institutions in Brazil; and to recognize the school as an important space for socialization. As for the methodology, this is a qualitative bibliographical research. As a result, it was possible to realize the importance of knowledge about the history and function of the foster care institutions, in order to demystify myths and prejudices; as well as the the relevance of the role of the school in the childhood of the foster children. The school has the role of helping them overcome possible difficulties in their development, and demystifying common stereotypes about the foster child.

Keywords : institutional shelter; school; child.
