The impact of school climate on student behavior is a critical area of focus in educational research, as it directly influences students' academic success, social-emotional development, and overall well-being. School climate encompasses the perceptions and experiences of students, teachers, and staff, highlighting aspects such as safety, relationships, teaching practices, and institutional support. This paper explores the multifaceted relationship between school climate and student behavior, emphasizing the significance of a positive climate in fostering engagement, reducing disruptive behaviors, and promoting a sense of belonging among students. A positive school climate is associated with increased academic engagement, where students feel valued, respected, and supported by their peers and educators. This environment encourages students to participate actively in learning, leading to improved academic performance and lower rates of behavioral issues. Conversely, a negative school climate often correlates with heightened aggression, bullying, and disengagement, resulting in detrimental outcomes for students, including increased dropout rates and mental health challenges.
