Abstract

There has been an abrupt change in the performance of our nation in terms of quality education these past few years. The learners' academic performance during the current school year has already been felt. In order to determine the academic performance of the learners in Kinoguitan District, a descriptive correlational study was conducted among the 278 Grade 6 students from Kinoguitan District, Misamis Oriental. The instrument of the study is a questionnaire derived from the study of Balbalosa ( 2010). The study used frequency, percentage, and weighted mean to present the gathered data statistically. The descriptive analysis presents the distribution of the respondents based on their profile, while the Pearson Correlational analysis was used to determine the significant relationship between the variables. The study found that there is a significant relationship between the school, teacher, and pupils-related factors on the academic performance of the Grade six students within the Kinoguitan District.
