Abstract
The study assessed the school leadership practices in La Paz District, Agusan Del Sur, during the School Year 2023 – 2024. The descriptive-correlation research method was employed in this study, and the questionnaire was used as the data – gathering tool. Validated survey questionnaires were given to 154 teachers from public elementary and junior high school teachers in La Paz district together research data. Results showed that the leadership practices of school heads were moderately practiced in terms of intellectual stimulation, individual consideration, idealized Influence, and inspirational motivation. The level of school performance in the DepEd programs in terms of performance improvement and SBM is in the Developing Level. There is a significant association between the school heads’ leadership practices and the school’s performance. The analysis showed that performance improvement is significantly associated with the school heads’ leadership practices in terms of intellectual stimulation, idealized consideration, idealized influence, and inspirational motivation. Finally, the study’s recommendations included a leadership upskilling program that might enhance or maintain school administrators’ leadership styles as they work to provide all students with a basic education that is high-quality, relevant, accessible, and free.
