The present article is a survey on the quality of using humanistic education components with focusing on elementary student’s school motivation achievement according to the teachers and principals of 2nd education district of Tehran. This is an applied research and is done as a field study research. The research community included two groups from 2nd district in Tehran in educational year 93-94: Principals & Teachers in public and private primary schools (boys and girls schools). The sample groups, chosen according to Cochran-Morgan table, consisted of 183 Principals (managers & assistants) and 295 teachers that were chosen through stratified random sampling. Studying the literature review in humanistic education field, the questionnaire prepared by the researcher was formed in four different components to gather data. Face and content validity of the research were determined with the help of university professors and its reliability was determined through Cronbach's Alpha (0.824). The gathered data was analyzed with SPSS software and non-Parametric Chi square Tests. The results show that the using of all four components is not satisfactory, therefore, regarding to the importance of humanistic education in comprehensive growth, it is suggested that certain courses with the same titles be hold by the Education Organization to promote the educational level of principals and teachers.
