The survey was conducted in a State of Elementary School and Middle School , located in the Mangabeira neighborhood in the city of João Pessoa PB .

Instrument data were analyzed using statistical described (frequency, mean and percentage) using the SPSS software, version 18. The participants agreed (M=4.73) than DST are serious, and believe they know about AIDS and are afraid of contracting it. In general, participants disagreed that using condoms with her boyfriend is to say that does not love or trust. However, young people are ashamed to do questions about sexuality, which may be related to the fear of exposing their doubts and intimacies, fearing that parents might discover their sexual practice. In addition, adolescents disagreed that people who have AIDS are guilty or that AIDS is a punishment caused by God. To verify the perception of adolescents about the health program at school, there was a positive perception of the actions developed by the program in school, demonstrating that it had a positive impact on the evaluation of the participants. From this research, we hope to contribute to the knowledge about sexual and preventive practices of adolescents and to carry out public policies for the reality thereof as well as to the improvement of existing shares such as the Health Program in Schools.
