Abstract : Teacher performance plays a crucial role in improving the quality of education, particularly at the elementary level where foundational academic and character development takes place. In Islamic elementary schools (Madrasah Ibtidaiyah), teachers are required not only to deliver academic content but also to integrate Islamic values into the learning process. This study aims to examine the effect of organizational culture and professional competence on teacher performance in State Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Tangerang Regency. This research employed a quantitative explanatory approach using a survey method. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 155 teachers, selected using the Slovin formula. Organizational culture and professional competence were treated as independent variables, while teacher performance was the dependent variable. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis, preceded by classical assumption tests, including normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation tests. The results indicate that organizational culture has a significant positive effect on teacher performance (β = 0.331; p < 0.05). Professional competence also shows a significant positive effect on teacher performance (β = 0.398; p < 0.05). Furthermore, the simultaneous test confirms that organizational culture and professional competence jointly influence teacher performance (F = 27.731; p < 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.355) suggests that 35.5% of the variance in teacher performance is explained by the two independent variables. The findings highlight the importance of strengthening organizational culture and enhancing professional competence to improve teacher performance. This study contributes to educational management literature and provides practical implications for school leaders and policymakers in improving the quality of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah education.
