This study aimed at investigating the degree of implementing the community school system and the obstacles facing it as viewed by the government schools principals in Jerash province in Jordan.

To achieve this objective a questionnaire was developed and distributed to a random sample of (120) principals and directors of governmental schools in the academic year 2011/2012.

Analyzing data from these questionnaires showed the following: the degree of implementation of the community school was moderate.

Community school applications focused on the following areas ordered from the highest to the least use application: (parental involvement, partnership in public relations, volunteerism, educational services, and the optimal use of community sources).

The most important obstacles to the implementation of the community school are low incentives for workers and of administrative staff, the ineffective relationship between the community and the school, as well as school work pressure on teachers and managers.
