Abstract:

According to Hoy, Tarter, & Kottkamp (2011), effective teachers need high level of organizational commitment. This suggests that high level of student's achievement requires dedicated teachers who contribute effectively. There is no doubt that high level of student's achievement is strongly related to high level of organizational commitment. The study is anchor on the following educational theories, Social Cognitive Theory of Bandura. Bandura's stresses the importance of observational learning, imitation and modeling. His theory integrates a continuous interaction between behaviors, personal factors- including cognition - and the environment referred to as reciprocal causation model. This study aims to determine the relationship of the teacher's commitment and the academic performance of HS students in the 2nd Congressional District of Milaor toward quality learning of k-12 programs SY 2017-2018. The significance of this study sprung from the importance of enhancing teachers' level of school commitment and the strong intention to develop and improve the students' outcome. The school administrators school principals,teachers and students will benefit from the useful suggestions to ameliorate the teachers' conditions which lead to enhancement of teachers' level of commitment,hence the enhancement of educational level including the students' achievement. The finding of the study will provide a practical significance to serve as a guide to practice framework for understanding teacher's commitments towards their profession and the effects on the students learning. It can possibly contribute to the knowledge concerning school performance and elements that contribute to the student’s quality education.
