We live in a process of population displacement that has been driving the revision of social, cultural, political, and educational values. We realized that this displacement can occur from economic and political crises to natural disasters, which end up driving cultural diversity and the need for different educational measures to deal with these subjects. Given this context, we aim to analyze the cultural diversity resulting from immigration in the municipal schools of Boa Vista / RR, based on data from the Municipal Department of Education, in the year 2020. We found that the number of students enrolled in their schools, coming from various countries, bring with them cultural characteristics and, consequently, the need for other forms of teaching activities. The state of Roraima has strong immigration characteristics, from its colonization project in the 1980s, until the intensification of Venezuelan immigration, starting in 2015. Most of these immigrants, who enter the state of Roraima, end up concentrating in the capital Boa Vista/RR. With this reality, there has been a significant increase in the number of Venezuelan students in municipal schools, as they see it as an opportunity for integration with the new society. Data analysis shows us the need to develop educational practices that meet cultural diversity in the school environment. This situation, which permeates the training and performance of the teaching professional, but also the qualification of the school management team and the Municipal Secretariat.

Keywords : Cultural Diversity; Immigration; School.
