According to international literature, violence is considered a serious problem, especially for children and adolescents. The reason is that exposure to violence at the beginning of the life course can be not only a degenerative health factor, but also, a phenomenon that can harm the accumulation of human capital and thus affect the social and economical formation of the victim. Because of the importance of this theorical link, the purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between violence and school proficiency in the city of São Paulo. To reach this aim, we use criminal occurrences arranged by police districts of the SEADE (Fundação Sistema Estadual de Análise de Dados), Prova Brasil 2005 that offers information of school performance and socioeconomic conditions of the evaluated students, Censo Escolar 2005 that collects information about teachers and schools, and socioeconomic variables arranged by capital districts (population districts) administered by Censo Demográfico 2000. The econometric analysis showed that students in fourth grade of public schools in violent areas have better performance in mathematics and portuguese for three of the six categories of crime used.
