Community Life

What are the characteristics of a community, and what do they look like in schools?

 
A safe, secure community allows for growth and exploration. In a cohesive community, there is open communication. In nurturing and accepting communities, people’s individual differences and different needs are openly acknowledged. Cooperative communities are those in which people work together to reach a shared goal or objective. In well-developed communities, people feel a part of the whole.

Trinity is a community where communication is open, morale is high, participation is widespread, teamwork is customary, humor is prevalent, diversity is incorporated, and compassion is a way of life.
