The purpose of this study was to standardize, reliability and explore exploratory factor analysis of school commitment questionnaire among high school students. The research method was descriptive-survey and the statistical population consisted of high school male students in Tabriz in the academic year of 2018-2019. From this population 350 people were selected by multistage cluster sampling method. To collect data, questionnaire of commitment to school and achievement motivation was used. Data analysis was performed using exploratory analysis, correlation coefficient and Cronbach's alpha. The findings showed that factor analysis on the data indicated that there were six factors in the school commitment scale which accounted for about 54% of the total variance of the scale. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the whole questionnaire was 0.91 and according to this coefficient it can be said that the scale has good reliability. The convergent validity of the questionnaire also showed that there is a positive and significant correlation between the sense of commitment to school and the hermeneutic achievement motivation and this result confirms the convergent validity of the sense of commitment to school. Therefore, the validity and reliability of this questionnaire were confirmed. The School Commitment Questionnaire can be used as a reliable and valid tool in educational situations.
