among students while others disagreed. Neve11heless, it becomes essential in recent times that

many schools have traded away discipline and as a result led to poor academic performance of

students. This study was carried out to establish the relationships between schools discipline and

students' academic performance. The study was conducted in Oye Ekiti Local govt., a town in

emotion and personality, this therefore resulted to student inability to relate well with their peers, and they become highly aggressive and at the same time affect their academic performances.
