Abstract

The impact of classroom environment on academic performance and involvement of senior high school students in Central Visayas, Philippines, is investigated in this qualitative research. This study looks at how teens see and adjust to various learning settings in 2023, which requires bare-walled classrooms. Fifty students were chosen using a phenomenological method from purposive sampling; data were gathered via open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The results show that while bare-walled classrooms help to increase attention and concentration, they could also lower involvement and creativity. On the other hand, ornamented classrooms improve emotional well-being and motivation but could divert attention from academic work. The research  concludes that a balanced strategy combining minimum distractions with functional aesthetics may maximize learning surroundings, therefore improving both concentration and involvement. This study offers practical suggestions for teachers, managers, and legislators on designing appropriate learning environments that support academic performance.
