Abstract | In this study, the researchers examined the culture and climate of selected middle and high schools in Alabama's River Region. Teachers and administrators from nine middle and eleven high schools completed two electronic surveys: (a) the School Culture Survey (SCS) and (b) the Organizational Climate Description Questionnaires (OCDQ-RM/OCDQ-RS). The results were analyzed using SPSS and based on responses to the SCS from 100 middle school stakeholders and 95 responses to the OCDQ-RM. The researchers discovered no statistically significant difference in the perception of school climate and culture between middle and high school stakeholders. The researchers chose this demographic region because currently, there is no known research on culture and climate specific to the counties in this region of the state. Additionally, multiple schools in various districts are listed on the state's Under-Performing Schools List. The researchers found that the climate in participating middle schools is more collaborative. Therefore, the researchers determined that middle schools in this region have more open climates than high schools. After compiling the analytics, the researchers reported the findings and recommended that school leaders employ strategies to increase the trust levels between teachers and administration.
