Leadership plays a major role in being the stronghold of a functional and governing community. In schools, student leaders learn, initiate, and act as one that unites the school community, by bridging the school administration and student body, by delegating themselves the tasks to uphold and represent the school, and by adapting to changes to be able to progress as an efficient whole. The TUGON RISCIAN utilized the descriptive method research in determining the level of acceptability in terms of competence, relevance, and organization. It also measured the level of effectiveness of the Rizal National Science High School Supreme Student Government Leadership and Management in times of pandemic. The SSG conducted evaluations using Google forms so that each participant could be made to reflect their grade level appropriately for students and council leaders who had firsthand experience with online distance learning because of the COVID-19 pandemic quarantine procedures.

For the effectiveness of leadership and management the mean value of 4.41 interpreted as Highly Acceptable as perceived by the students as highly effective as it embodied the mission of cultivating proactive scholars in serving the community with excellence.
