Keywords: high school, schooling process, school capital, families, trajectory, university.

Abstract

The trajectory of students, especially regarding access and permanence in higher education, is intrinsically related to the schooling process, that is, it is determined by the structuring and expansion of the school capital in basic education. This text discusses the strategies mobilized by a prestigious public school – the Military School of Campo Grande (CMCG) – that contribute to the admission in higher education. We sought to understand how agents and the institution: school, families and students, draw a project that results in admission in higher education courses in the country and in the region. The sources used are official reports of Military School System of Brazil, Journal of CMCG, among others, which are analyzed based on Bourdieusian studies. The results indicate that the Military School brings together pedagogical and symbolic elements that generate actions and feelings of belonging in the students, which once mobilized produce positive results as for the access to higher education.
