Abstract:
Employing a quantitative research design with a descriptive-correlational approach, this study explored the role of organizational climate and organizational happiness as determinants of organizational effectiveness in public secondary schools in the Carranglan District, SDO-Nueva Ecija, for the academic year 2024-2025. A total of 102 public secondary school teachers participated as respondents, selected using the Slovin Formula. The study utilized questionnaires to gather data. Statistical analyses, including mean calculations, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and the coefficient of determination, were conducted, with hypotheses tested at a 0.05 level of significance. Results revealed that the respondents perceived a positive organizational climate, characterized by a supportive and collaborative environment conducive to professional growth. Organizational happiness was rated high, indicating satisfaction and well-being among teachers due to effective relationships, supportive leadership, and value alignment. Furthermore, respondents demonstrated a commendable level of organizational effectiveness, suggesting success in achieving institutional goals through teamwork and leadership. Significant findings include strong positive correlations between organizational climate and happiness, climate and effectiveness, and happiness and effectiveness. These relationships underscore the critical interplay between a dynamic environment, teacher well-being, and institutional performance. Based on these findings, the researcher developed a training program titled “Synergy in Education: Linking Organizational Climate, Happiness, and Effectiveness for Successful Teaching and Learning.” This intervention is designed to strengthen the interconnectedness of these organizational dimensions, fostering enhanced teacher satisfaction, collaboration, and overall school performance. The study highlights the importance of fostering a supportive and inclusive organizational climate to sustain effectiveness in educational institutions.
