"Schools are places that are imbued with meaning - both shared and private. They act as conduits of ideas and practices within which cultural knowledge, norms, values, attitudes, and skills are passed from one generation to the next...To study the role of place in education is to study the institutional bridge that ensures our cultural continuance, that connects one adult generation to the next."
