    [abstract] => This study examined the influence of community involvement and school climate on the decision-making processes in school management in Lupon West District, Davao Oriental, using a descriptive-correlational research design. A total of 262 elementary school teachers were selected through simple random sampling, and validated survey instruments were used for data collection. The findings revealed that community involvement was generally extensive, with active participation in decision-making emerging as the most evident, while collaboration with school administration was only moderately extensive. School climate was also rated extensive, particularly in perception of safety and positive relationships, though supportive learning environment and inclusive practices remained moderately extensive. Decision-making processes were extensively practiced, especially in data-driven strategies and transparent communication, while inclusive consultation showed moderate implementation. Correlation results showed significant positive relationships between community involvement and decision-making, most notably through engagement in student mentorship. Similarly, school climate demonstrated a strong correlation with decision-making, with perception of safety as the highest contributing factor. Regression analysis confirmed that both community involvement and school climate significantly influenced decision-making processes, with school climate exhibiting a stronger predictive value. These results affirm the relevance of systemic, participative, and organizational theories in educational governance.
