Abstract: School administrators are the most important in achieving the educational objectives of schools. This research examined the variables of behavioral characteristics and agreement of school administration to the school administrators of the School Division of Tangub City. The descriptive-correlational research design was the data analysis and study guide. A cross-sectional survey approach was utilized in data collection, there was no sampling technique used since the target population was not large enough to collect the required data. After statistical analysis was done, it was found that there was no difference in the behavioral characteristics of the respondents when categorized in terms of length of service, and number of hours of training. Compared based on educational attainment, it was found that there is a difference in the respondents' perception on the behavioral characteristics X^2 (4) =7.97, p<.05. In addition, the correlation between behavioral characteristics and agreement of school management was positively correlated, r (49) = 0.57, p<.05. The result is statistically significant at α=0.05. The conclusion is that behavioral characteristics among school administrators are very significant in school management and vice versa. Furthermore, since administrators pursue continuous improvement, they have difficulty in Developing Work Systems. Therefore, corresponding training on work system development and implementation should be enhanced to bridge the gap in this parameter.
