Abstract:
This study examined the relationship between students' academic performance in Araling Panlipunan and the school climate as perceived by students and their self-management skills. The Grade 6 students of Pangantucan West District, Division of Bukidnon, were the study's respondents. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed, and self-assessment survey questionnaires were used to collect data. The study sought to ascertain the students' views of the school climate regarding safety, relationships, teaching and learning, and the institutional environment. At the same time, self-management skills are focused on self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and self-reinforcement. Additionally, Araling Panlipunan's second-quarter grades gauge the students' academic success. The results showed that students view their level of school climate and self-management skills as high. Nevertheless, most students performed academically at a moderate level in Araling Panlipunan. According to statistical analyses, there were correlations between students' academic performance and their self-management skills, primarily in areas of self-reinforcement, and their perception of the school climate, specifically in areas of safety, relationships, and teaching and learning. Regression analysis shows that teaching and learning are the most significant predictors of academic performance. The result implies that efficient, engaging, and motivating teaching methods are the ones that help students achieve their academic performance. These results imply that enhancing academic performance in Araling Panlipunan necessitates a comprehensive strategy that emphasizes curriculum and instruction. In addition to creating a welcoming and inclusive school climate, we developed students' ability to take charge of their education. Teachers and school administrators can enable students to take charge of their academic journeys by improving their learning environment and their capacity for self-regulation. Therefore, academic achievement can influence policies and initiatives that will enhance teaching methods, foster meaningful relationships between students and teachers, and assist students in managing their learning.
