Keywords:
Sustainable, Model, Adopt-A-School Program (ASP), Elementary Schools, VisayasAbstract
This study determined the adopted strategies of the public elementary model schools, the challenges encountered, and the suggested solutions by the three groups of respondents to sustain the effective implementation of the Adopt-a-School Program. The researcher utilized mixed methods in this study by combining quantitative and qualitative research techniques, methods, approaches, and concepts into a single study. School A had a continued improvement in NAT Performance, and Schools B and C had a good performance because the results were above the national passing rate of 75%. The three model schools were moving towards mastery of the learning competencies. These three model schools were moving towards mastery of the learning competencies. This implied that, aside from the other contributing factors to improvement, schools with sustaining development partners tend to perform better for the different supports provided in order to meet the needs of the schools. The three model schools had an excellent performance in drop-out rate. As to the Cohort-Survival Rate, each school had a fluctuating rate for the last three school years but the percentage of enrollees at the beginning grade of the school year who reached the final grade was higher. The fluctuating rate was caused by poverty, lack of motivation, no school materials, and health. The Completion Rate of School A was fluctuating; School B had maintained the rating of 100 percent; and School C had a fluctuating result for the last three school years due to health, no school materials, and lack of motivation.
