This study investigated the inclusion of a student with high skills / giftedness in a riverside school in Amazônia Amapaense. For that, a research based on the qualitative approach was carried out, based on the following research question: How has the school inclusion of a student with high skills/giftedness been taught in a riverside school in the municipality of Mazagão in the State of Amapá? The research had as general objective to analyze the process of inclusion of students with high skills / gifted from the 1st to 5th year of Elementary School. The locus of the research was a Riverside School located in the municipality of Mazagão in the State of Amapá. For the data collection, semi-structured interviews, observation, and photographic registration were carried out. Participants in this research were a teacher of the student’s class with high skills / giftedness, a teacher of Specialized Educational Attendance, a student with high skills / giftedness, a pedagogical coordinator, and the school principal. The collected data were analyzed from content analysis, considering the definition of the a priori category: school inclusion, as well as other intermediate categories and final categories that in this case are the non - a priori that emerged from the theoretical framework adopted in research and empirical research.
