Abstract

This study was conducted to assess the influence of school climate on senior high school students' engagement in extracurricular activities. This study employed a quantitative research design, specifically a correlational design. The respondents of the study were the 321 senior high school students at a Private Catholic Institution for the SY 2023-2024, selected through simple random sampling. An adapted questionnaire was used to assess students' experiences of school climate factors and their level of engagement in extracurricular activities. The mean was used to analyze the data, and the Spearman correlation coefficient was used to assess the significance of the relationship between school climate and students’ engagement in extracurricular activities. Results showed that most school climate factors were perceived as high, indicating a generally supportive school environment. However, bullying was identified as a significant concern despite having an influence on students' engagement, requiring targeted interventions. Findings also revealed that students had a high level of engagement in extracurricular activities, with intensity of participation being the highest. Overall, a weak yet statistically significant correlation was found between school climate and student engagement, with discipline, emotional safety, and the instructional environment showing the strongest relationships. Based on the findings, it was recommended that school administrators reinforce policies promoting a safe and inclusive school climate. Moreover, future researchers may explore qualitative approaches to uncover other aspects of school climate that influence extracurricular engagement, as the quantitative approach in this study provided limited perspectives.
