Abstract
This study determined the academic challenges and coping mechanisms of marginalized senior high school students in distance learning, during the second semester of School Year 2021-2022. It was conducted at Porais National High School in the Division of San Jose City. The respondents were six marginalized senior high school students. An interview was conducted in gathering data. The gathered data were presented, and these were scrutinized based on the research questions. The respondents identified lack of internet connectivity and lack of immediate guidance of teachers as their main challenge in distance learning. To seek help and ask for neighbors to be connected to the internet (if there’s any) were the identified coping mechanisms of students.
