The statistical community of this research is 1350 male and female teachers teaching in ordinary and smart students of high schools in that 300 ones were selected by stratified random sampling based on Morgan Table and the rate of the principals' knowledge management was measured using Phong's Modified Questionnaire (2009). Neefe's Modified Questionnaire is also used for organizational learning and the effectiveness of principals has been measured using Pokharel's Revised Questionnaire (2005). The reliability coefficients of the questionnaires were achieved 0.92 in knowledge management, 0.93 in organizational learning and 0.88 in its effectiveness using Cronbach's alpha. In addition, their validity was confirmed by the instructors.

The results obtained in this study showed that there is a significant relationship between knowledge management and organizational learning in ordinary and smart schools. In other words, organizational learning increases by the increase of knowledge management in that this increase in smart schools is more that of ordinary ones. The general relationship between knowledge management and organizational learning with the effectiveness of ordinary and smart schools principals was approved.
