Can my school be independent as a nation?

[This is an essay on how my school be an independent nation, there is no malicious intent behind this and this isn't based on any personal bias, opinion, and/or personal critical review]


Seeing how I went on a little bit of a tangent from my last post. So I going to go all Game Theory on this puppy and pose this: Can my school be independent from United States and become its own nation? Today I'll try to answer this.

My school does a lot of  things that differentiates itself from the rest of the governed land surrounded by it. My school is a private one, so it could do whatever it wants. BUT, it seems that sometimes the establishment goes above and beyond what a private school can go as far as the freedom of what its ruling body can do within the confines of the educational system. Before we can directly answer the question posed at the title, we have to look at the facts.



GOVERNMENT
The school turned micronation's government, if it became severed from the US, would be a Communist one. Not out of my own personal opinion, but rather the way the place is. There is no class based on socio-economics, all living quarters are pretty much the same (no ownage of private property, excluding personal belongings), and everyone gets payed the same (we'll touch on that in a minute). Also, there is only one political party in charge with no competition for being the one in charge.



ECONOMY
The micronation doesn't really export any of its own goods, which is important for competing in a global economy where the well being of one country's wealth affects everyone else's. Everyone is employed and everyone gets paid equally unless there is a negative discrepancy. The main imports by the micronation are food items that can't be produced by the micronation.


INDUSTRY
While this ties into economy, it also has to do with how the private micronation is able to produce for itself and for its people. There exists a small vegetable garden, but probably needs to be upgraded for the micronation to properly sustain its own people. Then are some crafts, albeit rarely produced to a major degree of providing a sturdy cash flow for the micronation to rely upon.


CULTURE
The micronation's culture is made up entirely by riding upon copying the world's art and culturally significant media. The micronation's culture also includes American pop culture (since its surround by territory of that country) that is poorly understood. The citizens would probably make up they're own unique culture from the rest of the world, but the micromanaging government establishment would probably fiddle around it to the best of their interests.



CONCLUSION
The answer would be a definite "Yes". However, the school would struggle to keep up with the stresses of being a independent nation. Such as diplomatic affairs, military, national happiness, economy, technological affairs, and upkeep. So the school (in hopes that this is in they're best interests) that they DON'T secede from the US unless they're able to handle being in charge of a country, as well as probably being included in the UN, which would be fun to watch on the telly.
