Abstract

This study had as issue to evaluate the practice of environmental education in high school at the State Basic Education School Presidente Artur da Costa e Silva, in the county of Xanxerê, Santa Catarina, trying to understand what are the efforts made by the administration and faculty of the institution, in order to provide actions that arouse the awareness of preservation and protection of natural resources in students. For this purpose, questionnaires were applied to the school coordinator, teachers and high school students. It was found that environmental education is present in the school and that it is transmitted to students in an interdisciplinary way. The environmental education is the way for every individual to change habits assuming new attitudes leading to decreased environmental degradation and promote the conservation and improvement of quality of life in harmony with the natural resources.
