Abstract:

Morong National High School has many reported cases of violations of school rules and regulations among Grade 10 students, also known as junior high school completers. There are many more classroom misbehaviors goes unreported because it can be immediately addressed and resolved by the classroom advisers without further need to be reported. This study aims to find out the most common misbehavior in the classroom, the impact of students' misbehavior on their academic performance, and the intervention programs implemented by Grade 10 advisers to address these behaviors. A descriptive qualitative and quantitative research methodology was used in the study. Each adviser from all the Grade 10 sections mentioned at least three (3) students showing misbehavior. Targeted sampling was used to obtain the best information to achieve the study’s objectives. Findings revealed that among Grade 10 students, various misbehaviors were observed, with absenteeism and tardiness being the most prevalent, followed by cell phone use and classroom noisiness. Students with poor behavior often obtained average grades in between 80 and 84 and below 75, although some achieved higher grades despite their misbehavior. The highest general average for students with absenteeism fell between 75 and 79, while the lowest overall average was below 75. The findings of the study also revealed that teachers commonly addressed misbehaviors by calling the attention of parents. From the findings, the study recommends implementing appropriate sanctions for different types of misbehavior, reinforcing attendance policies, and managing cell phone use during school hours. Orientation programs should be conducted to help Grade 10 students understand the significance of misbehavior and its impact on academic performance. Providing teachers with a handbook to effectively address misbehaviors is important. Students are advised to avoid misbehavior and practice self-discipline for improved academic performance.
