The purpose of this study was to determine whether in Georgia the job satisfaction of high school assistant principals was related to the perception of the principals' behavior as leaders. Perceptions of the leaders' behavior were measured by responses to the Leader Behavior Description Questionnaire. The Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire was administered to obtain job satisfaction scores. Pearson correlations indicated that job satisfaction is associated with leaders' behavior and that race, experience in education, size of school, level of education, and years of experience as assistant principals have little effect on job satisfaction. Considerate behavior of leaders was most related to job satisfaction.
