How to Answer
Share the level in which you know the area. If you are from the area, share experiences you have had with the educational system or community programs in which you are involved. If you are just moving to the area, share what specific items led you to live there and how you acclimated through community events/programs.

Answer Example
"Having grown up in the local area, I am very familiar with the community and local networks that this school is located. It is my home and part of the reason I am so passionate about making a difference within it. I participate, with many other mothers, in a Junior's Women's Club in this area. Every week, I join together with families from this community to volunteer our time to feed the homeless nearby. I am part of an exercise club that meets every day and a book club that meets once a week. This community is comprised of great people that shares some of the same values of this educational institution."
