Abstract
School culture has a multitude of definitions and can be perceived differently by every stakeholder group. The value and measure of importance of school culture can vary drastically from building to building and district to district. The purpose of this action research study was to examine the perceptions of school culture as it relates to the Moniteau School District. Results indicated that school culture was perceived in a favorable light, with community members feeling the faculty and staff, as well as administration supported the student population. Additionally, the community provided suggestions for what can be done to improve school culture, if the opportunity would
present itself. Implications of the study were that the district is on target with the extracurricular offerings and the communication methods it employs, which has led to a positive view of the current school culture. Feedback was offered on suggestions for
improvements that could enhance school culture.
