The current society is overwhelmed by developmental patterns, which degrade the environment through human actions and its negligent consumption pattern. Thus, this paper thinks the school as a valuable space and instrument for the development of critical awareness and posture of students. The locus of the research was the Celina Sá Morais School in Caucaia - CE. The main motivating factor for choosing this was its proximity to the sea and the intention to investigate the relationship of the school community with this coastal environment. The approach is qualitative, with emphasis on the subjective aspects that concern the perception and experiences of the research subjects. From the procedural point of view, we used questionnaires and semi-structured interviews; systematic observations; and analysis of official, national and school documents related to the environmental issue, seeking to counteract the official and the real. Thus, it can be seen that the subjects who embody the school understand the dynamics and fragility of the environment in which they find themselves, can glimpse the need for conservation of this environment, and recognize the potentiality of the school's location as a teaching and learning resource, even if activities and projects are not developed permanently
