The purpose of this quantitative study was to explore whether or not increased accountability measures found in the Ohio Teacher Evaluation System (OTES) impacted teacher job satisfaction. Student growth measures required by the OTES increased teacher accountability. Today, teachers are largely evaluated based on the results of what they do in the classroom as measured by student performance, rather than what they do to accomplish the task of teaching. Understanding the impact of the OTES on teacher job satisfaction is important as a connection between teacher job satisfaction and quality education has been identified.
