The research results show that: 1) the role of the school principal influences the quality of education by 68.7%, with the regression equation Ŷ = 2.721 + 0.487 X1. with a correlation coefficient value of 0.829. 2) school climate influences the quality of education by 79.9%, with a regression equation Ŷ = 0.629 + 1.119 X2 with a correlation coefficient of 0.894. 3) the role of the principal and the school climate influence the quality of education by 80.6%, with the equation Ŷ = 3.053 + 0.106 X1 + 0.920 X2 then the correlation coefficient r is 0.898. The conclusion of this research is that the role of the principal and the school climate influence the quality of education by 80.6%.
