- Middle-Grades School Climate: Comparing Perceptions of School Staff Sarah E. Pennington Christina J. Fassbender Educational Environment School Personnel Attitudes Early Adolescents Student Needs Middle Schools Administrator Attitudes Teacher Attitudes Librarians School Counselors Leadership Educational Policy Educational Practices Staff Development Studies have revealed that perceptions of school climate, including perceptions of school staff, are linked to multiple outcomes for students, teachers, and schools. However, staff perceptions regarding the degree to which their schools are meeting the needs of young adolescents may vary across schools, roles, and individuals. Thus, this study investigated the perceptions of school staff, including teachers, administrators, library media specialists, instructional coaches, counselors, and other school staff in 58 middle schools regarding how well their school meets the needs of young adolescents as described by the Successful Middle School (Bishop & Harris, 2021). Results indicate interesting trends, including significant differences between the perceptions of administrators and school staff in relation to elements of school leadership and organization.
