Abstract Amid the dynamic environment of elementary schools, transformational leadership plays a crucial role in shaping teacher morale. This study examined the impact of transformational leadership practices on teacher well-being, job satisfaction, and overall outlook in the Tboli West District during the 2023–2024 school year. A descriptive-correlational design explored the relationship between school administrators' leadership styles and teacher morale among educators handling multiple ancillary services. Findings revealed that the highest percentage of teachers belonged to the 29–33 age group (30%), while the lowest was in the 59–63 age group (1%). Relatively, they have 5–8 years of service (29%), with only 1% having 29–32 years of experience. Teachers handle 4–5 ancillary tasks (61%), while only 1% manage 10–11 tasks. Transformational leadership was rated high, with visionary thinking (M = 3.66, SD = 0.47), collaboration (M = 3.67, SD = 0.47), and empowering stakeholders (M = 3.62, SD = 0.49) receiving positive evaluations. Similarly, teacher morale was consistently high, with job satisfaction (M = 3.77, SD = 0.50), outlook (M = 3.59, SD = 0.51), and well-being (M = 3.57, SD = 0.52) reflecting resilience. Regression analysis indicated that teacher morale was significantly influenced by age and length of service, while the number of ancillary services had no significant effect. Correlation analysis further confirmed a significant relationship between transformational leadership practices and teacher morale, underscoring the vital role of effective leadership in maintaining teacher motivation despite workload challenges.
