Strange Things About American Schools That Non-Americans Find Confusing

Where are all the Windows?

If you pay close attention to American schools, they do not have many windows. Some classrooms don’t even have any windows at all. This is very strange for people who are not from America; some even say that the architectural design resembles a prison or jailhouse, photos don’t lie.

Other countries like Sweden or Asia have lots of windows to let light and air into the school. This is indeed a strange architectural design that is commonly seen throughout America in public schools. We’re not really sure why schools in America tend to follow this design. Fresh air and natural sunlight certainly do no harm!
