Abstract
Assessing students' understanding of political ideas and other key political topics may aid in the development of an engaged citizenry. The research pursued to measure the extent to which selected) students actively participate in civic activities and initiatives within their school, local community, or broader society. The researcher utilized total population sampling for the study and utilized descriptive-correlational research and used a researcher-made questionnaire. The population for the study consists of two hundred ninety-two (292) grade 12 humanities and social sciences (HUMSS) students at Crecencia Drucila Lopez Senior High School for the academic year 2023-2024. The respondents were aware of political awareness in terms of political institutions, political issues, political leaders, public policies, and political processes. In addition, the respondents acknowledged that they were conscious of their civic consciousness variables. The respondents also showed that they were engaged in community engagement. Moreover, it was revealed that there is a highly positive significant relationship between the respondent’s awareness on political awareness, and civic consciousness and their perception on their community engagement. This means that if one is aware of the political matters, it contributes to their participation in the community. The result could serve as a guide to schools to come up with different ways to boost individuals’ awareness of the affairs in the country to lead in active participation in community driven initiative that may affect change.
