The National School s Meal Program is the oldest and biggest program of alimentary supplementation of the Country. Considering it the demand created by it s range, the supply of school s meal woke the interest of enterprises specialized in this type of service, and that were already acting together with the Worker s Food Program. In this way, it was looked to compare two forms of school s meal management: the outsourcing, modality implemented recently in the county of Barra Mansa, RJ, and the schooling, process of management that is characterized for the auto-management of the schools in what concerns of the meals? productions for the students, process adopted in the schools of the General Office of Education of Rio de Janeiro s State.

The managers were unanimous in affirming the advantage of the employment of enterprise for the production of the meal, what disponibilized them to give more attention to the pedagogic s practices. The meal s school adhesion, in the three schools, was similar, being situated below in what it would be considered ideal. Meantime, the reasons of the not acceptance of the school meal diverges in the analyzed schools, showing up the necessity of adaptation of the school s meal and the activities of food education. / O presente estudo aborda a terceiriza??o como uma alternativa ?s formas de gest?o em merenda escolar. O Programa Nacional de Merenda Escolar ? o mais antigo e o maior programa se suplementa??o alimentar do Pa?s. Considerando-se a demanda criada pela sua abrang?ncia, o fornecimento de refei??es escolares despertou o interesse das empresas especializadas neste tipo de servi?o, e que j? atuavam junto a Programa de Alimenta??o do Trabalhador. Desta forma, buscou-se comparar duas formas de gest?o de merenda: a terceirizada, modalidade implementada recentemente no munic?pio de Barra Mansa, RJ, e a escolarizada, processo de gest?o que se caracteriza pela auto-gest?o das escolas no que concerne ? produ??o de refei??es para os educandos, processo adotado nas escolas da Secretaria de Educa??o do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Foram aplicados question?rios aos estudantes de duas escolas municipais e uma escola estadual, para verificar a aceita??o da merenda escolar nas diferentes formas de gest?o. Atrav?s de entrevistas t?cnicas com os respons?veis pelo planejamento da merenda, e da observa??o nas escolas, estabeleceu-se um par?metro entre as duas formas de se administrar a merenda escolar. Os gestores foram un?nimes em afirmar a vantagem da contrata??o de empresa para a produ??o da merenda, o que os disponibilizou para dar mais aten??o ?s pr?ticas pedag?gicas. A ades?o ? merenda, nas tr?s escolas, foi semelhante, situando-se abaixo do que seria considerado ideal. Entretanto, os motivos que levam ? n?o aceita??o da refei??o escolar divergem nas escolas analisadas, evidenciando a necessidade de adequa??o da merenda e de atividades de educa??o alimentar.
