This investigation, made in the perspective of the studies about school culture focuses, specifically, on what is understood by quality of regular high school in the state public network in Minas Gerais, in the ambit of the Reference Schools Program PER. As the target for our research, two public schools from the countryside of Minas Gerais were chosen as reference schools. The data collection was done from 2005 to 2007, with help from built and tested instruments, including: analysis of documents, observations of the school reality, interviews, application of inquiries and chats were held and involving, in both schools, the different school agents involved in the PER (2 technicians from the Regional Secretary s office, 2 supervisors, 2 school managers, 12 teachers and 24 students from High-school). With the theoretical support of authors such as: Barroso, Bourdieu, Canário. Hutmacher, Krawczik, Kuenzer, Marchesi and Martin, Mitrulis, Nóvoa and Zibas, the research investigates the hypothesis that the quality of teaching that both schools offer is linked to the way how they conceive the general formation of its students (as one school privileges a kind of high school marked by the expectative related to the SAT, by its rigidity in the way to behave and disciplinary action, by offering a content-based and traditional teaching and by the distancing in the teacher-student relation, the other school, prioritizes the social formation and integration of the student in society, attending his/her social difficulties, trying to work them to go beyond the simple offering of the contents studied). These were orienting questions of the research: What are the determinants of the differences in the offered quality at high-school by the two schools researched, which belong to a same school network and that develop the same improvement project of teaching quality? How do these factors interfere in the pedagogical activities, in the administrative and financial organization of the school and in the development started by both? How do these differences detected relate to the teaching quality of regular high-school inside both schools? Thus, the objectives of the research predicted: a) to analyze differences and similarities in the organization of both schools, understanding that these determinant traces mark the limits and possibilities of the school work and of the general formation of students, and b) to present and analyze the ways of working the PER and in what measure the characteristics of each school interfere in this differentiated development. The data collected were organized and analyzed from three great index groups of school realities, which are: school management, pedagogical work and curriculum. The results confirmed the hypothesis investigated and revealed a Program, whose rhetoric proposes to rescue teaching quality still susceptible to vague stances. The curricular upgrade proposed revealed itself as distant from the reality of the schools researched and each and every one of them, as an answer, finds it own ways to escape from the mismanagements and makes its own identity prevail. At last, the results also allowed limiting conceptually the idea of quality in education in general and, particularly, in teaching, be it high school teaching or not
