This study utilized descriptive research method. The respondents were 103 teachers from public elementary schools in the District of Obando, Bulacan.

It shows that they are competent and prepared before they enter their classrooms and to face their students. Principal leadership skills are rated descriptively as very satisfactory because teachers see how effectively and efficiently their principals manage and supervise their school.
