Özet: School climate can vary from school to school within the same district and an individual school can develop a climate independently of the larger organization. The research question is whether schools that operate under the same school chain show similar or different school environment factors with regards to parents, students, and teachers. This is a case study where data is collected quantitatively. The case was selected by using purposeful sampling method. 3 of the elementary schools in this school chain located in the same city were included into this study. To collect data, Learning Environments Survey was used. There are 7 factors in the survey: Satisfaction, Principal’s Leadership, Effective Communication, Service Satisfaction, Identity, and Climate. To analyze data, one-way ANOVA and descriptive statistics were done. The analysis of the surveys administered to parents, students, and teachers showed significant differences in the factors of Principal and Communication amongst teachers, Academic Satisfaction, Communication, and Identity amongst students, and Identity amongst parents.
