School and Community Characteristics

• What are the social characteristics that make up your school? These can include family relationships, as well as interaction between students and teachers. 
• What are the political characteristics that make up your school? How is it governed? Who is in control? Are students able to participate in the school’s government or decision-making process? 
• What are the economic characteristics that make up your community? 
• What cultural groups make up your community? How have these groups influenced your community?

•  Social characteristics that make up my school include relationships such as family relations, friendship, and teacher-student relations. I have a older brother who is currently a senior, and who is someone I barely talk to when I am in school. I have a large population of friends, including many of the high school students. There are many various types of teacher-student relations. Some examples may be strictly just teachers and students, while others may be friends who poke each other. 
• The school's center is mainly the office. Most of the commands and changes that is related to school is mainly decided there, made by our head of school and our principal. Our school, like most other schools, include a student council that communicates the student's wishes to the head of the school, in this case, the office. 
• The economic conditions of our community are in pretty good condition. After all, this American school is quite expensive, and only parents with the financial ability will send their children here, so their financial conditions must be quite well, if not above average.
• The main cultural group that mkes up my community is the overall group of Asians. There are only a few foreigners in the student body: two Japanese,  one Korean, and one American. The main group I hang out with is all made up of Asians. More precisely Taiwanese. They influence me in many ways such as how I think and how I behave.
