Teacher stress has emerged over the past twenty five years as a serious concern for teachers, students and parents. Worldwide surveys reveal widespread concern about the effects of stress on teachers’ sense of well-being and their willingness to stay in the profession. Schools are facing a crisis retaining experienced teachers, and stress is a major reason why teachers leave profession. Large numbers of teachers report high levels of stress. Each teacher has different level of stress and sometimes what is stressful for one person may not be a problem for someone else. This viewpoint leads to prevention strategies that focus on workers and ways to help them cope with demanding job conditions. Scientific evidence suggests that certain working conditions are stressful to most people. Evidence from recent studies argued for a greater emphasis on working conditions as the key source of job stress and for job redesign as a primary prevention strategy. However no standard models exist on how to measure teacher stress. In this study, a quantitative research was conducted through a questionnaire survey to find out the factors of secondary school teachers in Haiti and a pilot test was developed by the researcher. The target population was the secondary school teachers in Haiti. Ninety percent of responses were returned. The results of this study show that majority of teachers are stressed out. This study tested the hypothesis of the demographic variable in relation to teachers’ stress which is divided by student behavior, teacher burnout, parent involvement, salary, work conditions, communication. Twenty secondary school teachers in Haiti from the department of west were surveyed. The results provided support for all hypotheses. It shows that secondary school teachers are very stressed out in Haiti. The main findings of this research should assist principals of school, teachers’ organizations, Ministry of Education in making decision by helping teachers to cope with stress at work. It may also assist future teachers in preparation for dealing with stress in classroom. Finally, the study offers recommendations all the parties involved and the researcher provides suggestions for future research.

Keywords: Secondary teachers stress, student behavior, teacher burnout, parent involvement, salary, work conditions, communication.
