The transformational leadership of school principals, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment strongly influence Organizational Citizenship Behavior. This study was motivated by the variation in teachers’ OCB levels at public junior high schools in Gambut Sub-district, which is associated with differences in leadership style, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. The purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of transformational leadership, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment on teachers’ OCB, both directly and indirectly through the mediating role of organizational commitment. This study employed a quantitative approach, administering a survey to 58 teachers from public junior high schools in Gambut, selected via saturated sampling. The research instrument was a questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale. The findings reveal that transformational leadership, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment have a positive and significant effect on teachers’ OCB. Furthermore, organizational commitment mediated the effects of transformational leadership and job satisfaction on OCB. These results emphasize that inspirational leadership, high job satisfaction, and strong organizational commitment can strengthen teachers’ extra-role behaviors in supporting the quality of education in schools.
