Summary: This study deals with the participation of the students segment in the School Council of elementary education units. We understand that the strengthening of student representation in the collegiate provides opportunities for involvement and have an important role in training for citizenship. We start from the idea that strengthening student participation in this consultative and deliberative space constitutes actions that foment the existence of democratic relationships at school. In this sense, our main objective was to investigate how students participate, as full members, in the councils of three schools in the city of Vitória/ES. The research is based on theorists who approach democratic management, participation and school councils in their studies, highlighting contributions from Paro (2002; 2004; 2012; 2018), Lück (2013), Cury
(2002), Chauí (2018; 2020), Freire (1997, 2001, 2015), Bobbio (1988; 1989), as well
as the National Program for Strengthening School Councils (BRASIL, 2004; 2006; 2008). Based on the qualitative approach, the data collection was carried out through focus groups with students and semi-structured interviews with directors and students, through videoconferences and face-to-face meetings. It was analized the perception of the students and the directors regarding the challenges and possibilities of active participation of students in the School Council. In the design of the research, it was evidenced that there are weaknesses regarding participation, however, the students see the representation in the spaces of dialogue, planning, monitoring, decision and evaluation as positive, bringing in their reports expectations regarding the performance in the collegiate. The School Counselor Student Guide is designed as an educational product.
