About the School Community Genogram

This school community genogram places the school at the center of a small relationship network, making it easy to see the people who connect with the learning environment and the roles they play.

The example contains five people and one school. Peter and Mary are shown as a married couple. John is identified as the principal, Jenny as a teacher, and Amanda as another person connected with the school.

Directional lines connect John, Jenny, and Amanda with the central school node. This hub-based structure gives users a simple starting point for adding students, caregivers, staff, specialists, clubs, services, agencies, and community partners. Each connection can be labeled with its purpose, frequency, owner, or current action.

  • Maps five people and one central school
  • Records principal and teacher roles
  • Connects three people directly with the school
  • Provides an expandable foundation for family, education, and community-support planning
