COMMUNITY ON
SCHOOL:
An effective method of promoting education and ensuring
school support is involving the community in school activities.
By inviting community members to join in school festivities,
the school administration can improve the overall satisfaction
of the student body, increase the effectiveness of the education
and raise the likelihood that the school will continue to be
supported by the community.
