A team of researchers from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville is in its tenth year of working with individual schools to improve the quality of life within educational communities. This paper reports on the current Quality of School Life (QSL) study conducted to assess teachers' perceived levels of satisfaction with the quality of their school life according to school level, gender, and years of teaching experience. Survey data were collected from 701 teachers in 21 Tennessee public schools during the 1992-93 and 1993-94 school years. Although findings indicated that perceptions vary according to school site, some patterns were identified across schools in the selection of specific QSL factors. When analyzed by school, QSL school level factors were found to be significantly different in terms of importance. Communication, support, work load, working conditions and resources were consistently ranked among the most important to teachers, while work enrichment, leadership, and recognition were consistently ranked as among the least important. The study replicates the results of other research and supports the assumptions underlying the QSL process. Suggestions for further research and 13 statistical tables detailing study findings complete the document. (Contains 43 references.) (LL)
