Abstract

This study determined the level of awareness of the teachers and administrators in natural and man-made disasters as well as their level of preparation and implementation of the DRRM Program.  The descriptive-correlational research design was used in the study.  The data were gathered through the questionnaire and administered to 96 respondents. The data gathered were analyzed through weighted mean and Pearson correlation.  Results of the study showed high awareness of teachers and administrators in natural and man-made disasters. The school personnel also prepared and implemented the DRRM Program. The study also revealed significant relationships between the awareness in multiple disasters and preparation in the DRRM Program as well as the preparation and implementation of the DRRM Program. Given the overall results, the study may serve as a basis for schools to improve the implementation of the DRRM Program through higher disaster awareness and preparation.
