This article's intent is to take into account the web of acquaintanceships that teacher and pedagogue V. Olga Cossettini developed during the 1930's and early 1940's, thanks to which she was able to organize her educational project in the official educational structures of Santa Fe province of Argentina. In a historical context marked by intervention and fraud, we intend to historically locate this educator, allowing the integral comprehension of said historical context's complexities; and also allowing the interpretation of what an experience such as Escuela Serena meant in a political climate that, a priori, one would have thought of as less than ideal for this type of pedagogical practices.
