This study attempted to establish the relationship among the performances of secondary school administrators, of secondary school teachers, and of fourth year students in the NSAT- based achievement test in selected national high schools in the Division of Samar during the school year 1995-1996. On the correlation between the PASKO ratings of secondary school administrators and the average ratings of the students in the achievement test in every school, the results were the following: Pearson r+ 0.66 resulted when the official PASKO ratings of secondary school heads and the students average ratings in the achievement test were tested for their correlation, which indicated a substantial but not significant correlation. Pearson r + 0.17 resulted when the combined performance ratings of the secondary school administrators and students average ratings in the achievement test were tested for their correlation, which indicated a low, insignificant correlation. There was no significant correlation between the performance of the secondary school administrators and the average ratings of the students in the NSAT- based achievement test in every school. But two sets of variables resulted in substantial correlation between the performances of school administrators and students, although their actual relationship was not direct, because the teachers were directly in charge of the students. The official PASKO ratings of high school administrators and the official PAST ratings of high school teachers under them were deliberately increased compared to the perception and actual experiences of teacher-raters and students-raters respectively; and these facts were also reflected in the actual, very low ratings of the students in the NSAT-based achievement test.
