This article analyzes two recurrent elements on the three first-year issues (1902-1904) of Stella d'Italia, a Porto Alegre's newspaper edited in italian, specifically the dissatisfaction with the condition of the Italian education in Porto Alegre, and the fuss involving the Italian consul Enrico Ciapelli, which resulted in the interruption of school materials being delivered to Italian schools kept by the Italian societies that supported the newspaper. The polemic issue, which was not described in the consul's official reports, resulted in indictment against the consul. The indictment, which was supported by the newspaper editor, accused the consul of neglecting the Italian school and his countrymen. Taking into consideration the lack of literature on ethnic Italian schools in Porto Alegre, Stella d'Italia newspaper is particularly important due to the frequent articles on education on its pages. Its remarkable opinion and care about this type of school throughout the texts which, in most cases, were written by Editor Adelchi Colnaghi. Colnaghi's appeals and considerations related to the defense of the Italian school, his diagnosis about the school difficulties as well as the Italian education conditions in Porto Alegre were many times published in the newspaper. Colnaghi was convinced of the italian school importance, but from the newspaper's perspective, very little was done about it and, sometimes, some things were done even against it.
