How does school act as an agent of socialization?

They're asking from an academic point of view. Many organizations and institutions are "agents of socialization"; the family, church, school, work, mass media, social media, even (gasp) homeschooling groups are *all* agents of socialization. It does not mean that school is the only place to socialize. It really isn't about socializing as in interacting. It's about how institutions affect behavior.

Read the definition as it applies to sociology:

You might want to repost this so that you get answers whose biases are less the point of the answer. .
