It notes that according to the Department of Education, lack of classrooms is a major issue faced by schools each year. Specifically at Agusan National High School, there are more students than available classrooms, leading to overcrowding.

    THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

    Introduction

    Learning environment is thought to play an important and valuable role in students

    focus, memory, motivation, and overall academic performance. According to U.S.

    Department of Education (2004), every student deserves to go to a school with a positive

    environment which consists of conditions (such as healthy air to breathe, peaceful and quite

    environment, etc.) With classroom shortages, a good outcome cannot be expected from its

    school system. Since the student’s resources are neglected, suffering in terms of educational

    efficiency is the consequences. This limits the quality of teaching, learning and the interest of

    students lowers which leads them to absenteeism.

    Classrooms are where the majority of learning processes and activities happen. A

    place supposedly should be conducive the development of student’s cognitive abilities,

    mental as well as social skills; however, in majority of school in the Philippines this isn’t the

    case. According to Department of Education(DepEd) Undersecretary Tonisito Umali said the

    lack of classrooms, learning materials, schools that don’t have electricity or schools located

    in off-grid areas, and schools that don’t have water sources were among the problems faced

    by the agency every school year.

    Agusan National High School is a huge school where the students are much more

    plenty that the needed classrooms. It is a crowded place and the lack of classrooms are one

    of the major problems that really affect the wellbeing of the students. This problem greatly

    influences the behavior and the performance of every student. Sharing the same classroom
    2

    is the effect of having this issue and changes its original schedule to fit the other classes. The

    will of every students decreases as the problem worsen and their determination in going to

    school reduce. Some evidences suggest that overcrowding has and adverse impact on

    learning. However, studies between the relationship of the lack of classroom and its effect on

    students learning has been limited.
