The study adapts the ethnographic approach, and ethnographic study usually collects data by long-term participant observations and interviews. Therefore, A public girls’senior high school in north part of Taiwan was selected and one class for each major participated. Key informant interviews and focus group interviews were conducted and the data from participant observation and interviews were analyzed, interpreted and discussed. Through the field study, I inquire how senior high school girl students act in everyday school life and what they think of their schoolwork and themselves. When focusing on the part of schoolwork, the contents of student culture include perspectives in school, perspectives in curriculum, perspectives in major subjects and ideas about their future. Research results are as follow: 1.The culture of girl students in this senior high school conforms to school. 2.The perspectives in schoolwork of senior high school girl students reflect the gender relationship in society at large. 3.The school maintains and reinforces girl students’ perspctives in gender relationship.
