I feel like community is a place where people living in one area have relationships, form bonds, and coexist together regardless of differences. Community in Athens, from what I have experienced, focuses mainly on football. Saturdays in Athens bring everyone together to enjoy something together as a community. But I have also witnessed a community at the Athens Clarke County library. I sometimes go there after school and I can see students and adults alike engaging on computer and reading all different types of books.
I think that everyone that lives in that one area is considered a part of the community. I don’t think that you have to necessarily need to be engaged in every facet of the community but just your geographical location can make you part of a community. Because if this, community can be found in many different places including your workplace, your schools, and teams. Community in schools is vital to having a successful classroom and school. If you have people working against each other all the time then it will make it hard to form relationships and coexist well together. When a school has a well rounded community, both teachers and students will have a better quality of life and will enjoy spending time there. That school community is important because teacher and peers have worked together to form a successful work environment which will benefit everyone that comes through that school.
