Resumen:
Violence has claimed various victims in different sectors of society. It is a phenomenon that plagues society as a whole. It is not restricted only to large urban centers, but also [occurs] in inland cities and rural areas. This scenario of violence has also established itself in schools in an alarming way. Therefore, this work aims to identify the different forms of violence that are occurring in the school environment and to propose a partnership between the Churches and the School, as an alternative to face violence in the school environment. It analyzes the possible conflict factors that generate violence, the possible consequences, and what is being done to establish a culture of peace and promote good relationships in the midst of the postmodern scenario. This research aims to gather information that serves as a basis for schools to face one of their greatest challenges: to educate, and to affectionately complement what is lacking in homes. It also aims to contribute to the restoration of family ties and encourage the partnership of the family with the school so that there is a harmonious and motivating coexistence in favor of building the citizenship of children, young people and adolescents. Therefore, in order to achieve this objective, an exploratory research was carried out (Gil, 2002) on the information conveyed on social media, with the Department of Education and the Civil Police Section of Taubaté-SP, in search of possible documentary records on violence and its consequences, possible solutions adopted and their results. This research also aims to find out what is actually being used as a public policy to confront violence at school. For data collection, analyses of official publicly accessible documents from the Department of Education of the Municipality of Taubaté were carried out, as well as of reports published by the media, and information contained in police reports, which deal with crimes occurring in and around schools. The analysis methodology used was that of content analysis (Bardin, 2009). These documentary analyses were fundamental for this work, since it was possible to identify the main factors that trigger the process that generates violence in municipal schools in the city of Taubaté-SP.
