Abstract	Teaching is a demanding profession that requires emotional resilience and mental strength to handle various stressors, including administrative expectations, classroom management, and workload pressures. This study aimed to assess the social support on psychological well-being and resilience among secondary school teachers in selected public schools in the 2nd Congressional District of Misamis Oriental during the School Year 2024-2025. Specifically, it sought to assess teachers’ social support, psychological well-being, and resilience levels, and to identify significant relationships among these variables. A descriptive correlation method was employed, and a stratified random sample of 200 secondary school teachers was used to administer a patterned and modified questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, were used to describe the variables. Additionally, Pearson's Correlation (r) and t-test were used to analyze the relationships and differences among the variables. The results showed that most respondents assessed their social support as high, with the strongest support coming from family and the lowest from school. Meanwhile, teachers’ psychological well-being was rated as very high, with self-acceptance as the strongest aspect; however, personal growth was rated very high and the lowest among the variables. Regarding resilience, the overall rated very high, with spiritual influences ranks the highest and personal confidence ranks the lowest; yet, the overall rating was very high. In conclusion, there were significant relationships between social support both psychological well-being and resilience, with home support being the most influential factor. It recommends that school heads and teachers collaborate to improve social support within schools and establish professional development opportunities that encourage personal growth and confidence among teachers.
