Relationship, Economic Status, Educational Commitment, TeachersAbstract
This study was conducted to find out the relationship between the economic status and the educational of teachers in the District of Tarangnan-Pagsanghan, Division of Samar, because actual observation of the situation revealed that the role of the teachers have expanded and that they are mandated to perform several educational commitments regardless to their economic status. This study employed the normative-descriptive research method using a questionnaire-checklist as the principal instrument in gathering data. The average monthly per capita income was obtained by dividing the average joint monthly income by the total family members in each area. Generally, this made an average monthly per capita income of 752.73 in the entire district. The average joint monthly expense in the whole district was computed as 4,774.58. On educational commitments. Since the educational commitments of the teachers are mandated by their service, being incumbent in their task as education, they are duty bound to perform these commitments, regardless of their economic status. So, if they lack money to achieve their educational commitments, they have to dedicate their time and effort in order to influence a variety of human behaviour towards school and community development. The teachers should consider the requirements in planning a family in order to limit the family size within their financial resources, thereby alleviating their economic status.
