This research aims to investigate the relationship between the performance of students in the discipline of History and their social family background, by using the concept of cultural capital as theoretical reference, that intend to explain the inequity of school performance of children from distinct social classes relating school success to the sharing of the cultural capital between social classes. To do so, the starting point is the idea that the school plays a decisive role in the reproduction of the dominant cultural capital and its deficiency may directly interfere with the performance in specific areas of the curriculum such as History discipline. Data collection has taken place in two stages. The first was the application of a questionnaire to 47 graduated students of the Elementary School II at E. E. Prof. Caetano de Campos, in São Paulo, and aimed to map family habits that allow identifying the cultural capital of the agents investigated. From the data collected on the instrument and based on students performance on History discipline detected through the grades obtained by them in the discipline four families were selected to a semi-structured interview at the second stage of the study. Working with the concept of family configurations, the study aimed to ascertain the mode of transmission of this family cultural capital, considering whether it can be transmitted by parents to children, despite its objective presence, so it reverts into school practices. The data that were collected in the questionnaire and interviews point out the existence of a relationship between access to cultural assets - cultural capital - and the cultural practices closer to schooling and the performance of students in History. Among students who have better grades in History it was observed the existence of family strategies, cultural practices, more access to cultural assets and more proximity to the written text
