Abstract	The author's concern for how teachers nationwide are coping with unrelenting levels of stress is the topic of current research. A national sample of 1,200 teachers was asked to complete a survey addressing three areas: the sources of teacher stress; the manifestations of stress; and coping strategies they found most successful. Knowing the areas that cause teachers to feel stressed is useful information for principals who want to energize and encourage their teachers. The author states that concern for teachers' level of job satisfaction and stress is important to the successful academic preparation of the students. A principal is in a position of creating a positive and productive school community where all players feel valued. Paying attention to teachers' concerns about time, respect, and support is a powerful way to support one's faculty and attain that goal. (ERIC).
