Abstract The Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) provides conditional financial assistance to low-income families for nutrition, health, and education, aiming to break the cycle of poverty. This study examined the relationship between 4Ps and district-level school performance in Jasaan, Misamis Oriental, for School Year 2024–2025. Key indicators analyzed were enrollment, dropout, graduation, and cohort survival rates. A total of 177 4Ps recipients from Jasaan National High School and Bobontugan National High School participated, selected through stratified random sampling. Data were gathered using a validated questionnaire, and the study employed a descriptive-correlational method using mean, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation.
Results showed that 4Ps had a generally positive impact on education, particularly on graduation rates. However, the program struggled to address food insecurity, limiting its effectiveness in improving nutrition. Enrollment challenges persisted due to poverty and limited access to schools. The relationship between 4Ps and overall district school performance was found to be statistically insignificant, with factors like education quality and family support playing greater roles in student outcomes. The study concluded that financial aid alone is not enough for academic success. It recommended enhancing 4Ps through improved nutrition programs, stronger parent-teacher collaboration, mentorship, better facilities, and broader community support.
