english house system
Sistema inglés de reparto de alumnos en equipos llamados "casas"


Explanation:
Parafrasis pero es lo que es. Depende del espacio que tengas. Lo que pasa es que no depende de la clase ya que todos los niveles están repartidos en las 4, por ejemplo, casas.

agree  Christian Nielsen-Palacios: es importante indicar que se trata de alumnos. Ademas, en EEUU ellos no VIVEN en las casas (no es lo mismo que en Hogwarts). No son dormitorios.

  -> Sí estoy de acuerdo :)) Gracias Christian
agree  Zaida Machuca Inostroza: Si en lugar de reparto, pudiera usarse distribución, pero creo que esta es la idea

english house system
Ver nota, explicativa


Explanation:
Sistema de casas. Nosotros tenemos North House, South House, Casa Sur, Casa Este y la casa central (Central House como lo explica Swatchka. Asi estan agrupados los estudiantes y los maestros/profesores tambien. Cada cual sabe a cual casa pertence. No tenemos que especificar escribiendo "estudiantes" pues este sistema tambien incluye a los empleados de la escuela relacionada con todo lo que tyiene que ver con "Teaching and Learning". es un sistema myu conocido aqui, respecialmente en Nueva Inglaterra. Tambien en el pueblo que yo vivo la "High School" esta dividida por Casas.
