The paper is the result of a research which aimed at understanding the relationship between the rural education, in the perspective of the alternation pedagogy practised by the rural family houses of the Southwest Region of Paraná, and the sustainable development of familiar agriculture. This text is prioritized two aspects of the research: the relationship between rural family houses and the public school and a characterization of its faculty, particularly in regard to training and professional experience with the alternation pedagogy and the possible impacts of both aspects in students' education. The data were collected through interviews, questionnaires and observation. The results suggest that these institutions have been consolidated as an alternative to school education of the children of small farmers, even if they have problems of administrative nature that make it very difficult to maintain a stable teaching staff, either because of the precarious relationship of the majority of teachers with the State, whether as a result of the rotation of monitors due to salary issues.
