The article presents the results of a master’s degree research in education whose main objective is to analyze the closure and nucleation of rural schools in the municipality of Pitanga, located in the state of Paraná. The research was carried out using a qualitative and documentary approach, with the aim of understanding the historical process of closing rural schools between the years 1995 and 2020. The period of analysis was established after the independence of the last municipality that dismembered from Pitanga. To obtain information about schools closed during this specific period, documentary research was carried out at the Department of Education. As for the methodology, it is a qualitative research, while in relation to the objectives, it can be classified as exploratory, and in terms of technical procedures, it is characterized as bibliographic. In this study, we seek to establish a discussion about the relationship between the closure and nucleation of schools, which has become a consolidated trend in several municipalities in Paraná. The data obtained indicates that the trend of school closures in the municipality of Pitanga is continuous, with more than 80 rural schools having closed in just over two decades. The Education Guidelines and Bases Law – LSB 9.394/96 and the Rural Education Curricular Guidelines (2006) were used as guiding documents. Among the main authors are: Caldart (2012), Hage (2014), Paula (2015) and Vasconcellos (1993).

Keywords : Field education; Closing of schools; Nucleation.
