Resumo:How to conceive a school as a space of acceptance and coexistence between subjects who act in such different ways? Where do many no longer fit within the pre-established (hetero) norm that judges, sentences and punishes behavior outside of male / female binarism? The idea of a non-heteronormative school fits within the concept of heterotopy, a place or space that operates in non-hegemonic conditions. It is intended to describe situations in which students who have different forms of subjectivity assume a posture of acceptance and conviviality of their differences. A study is proposed using post-structuralist and Queer Theory assumptions, aiming to demonstrate how students (dancers) and non-dancers live in a non-heteronormative way. It was analyzed through ethnography how the students positioned themselves in relation to issues of heteronormative differences and the interactions between dancers and non-dancers students at different times and spaces in the school were described. The analyzed school can be considered a heterotopy, where most students accept each other and live together in order to respect their subjectivities.
