MASCHIO, Elaine Cátia Falcade. School records maintenance and its role as a source of childhood representation. Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2015, vol.37, n.2, pp.141-150. ISSN 2178-5201.  https://doi.org/10.4025/actascieduc.v37i2.20337.

School records from the Italian colonies in Curitiba PR Brazil are analyzed as a source of representational forms of childhood. The categories that ordained childhood within the ethnic and school community perspective are identified through the schools´ attendance rolls. The requirement to maintain school records was in fact an administrative tool to transform schooling and teaching into an institution. The practice in schools in immigrants´ colonies provided children's names, classified the different profiles of children who attended school and measured the regularity of their teaching and learning achievements. Attendance rolls were a legal instrument which showed the school´s capacity to ordain childhood by schooling the social subjects and transforming them into schooled subjects.

Keywords : Students; Education; School Culture.
