Unveiling Excellence: A Holistic Evaluation of the Summer Enrichment Program at Laboratory Elementary School, DMMMSU-MLUC, Philippines

Abstract

In strict accordance with DepEd Order No. 23, Series of 2011, the Laboratory Elementary School at DMMMSU-MLUC instituted the Summer Enrichment Program (SEP). This comprehensive study meticulously explores the evaluation of SEP's effectiveness while identifying areas ripe for improvement, centering on enrollment dynamics, completion rates, tutor engagement, and overall program execution. Employing a robust descriptive-evaluative research design, the analytical framework spans the critical examination of documents, survey analyses, and in-depth interviews with pertinent stakeholders. Positive trends, notably a marked increase in enrollment and heightened academic proficiency serve as tangible indicators of the SEP's unequivocal positive impact. Although the program's implementation broadly aligns with regulatory frameworks, targeted domains such as Admission, Program Offerings, and Facilities warrant nuanced scrutiny to optimize outcomes. This research stands as an invaluable resource for educational institutions seeking to refine and elevate enrichment programs, contributing significantly to the scholarly dialogue surrounding effective educational interventions and fostering a more holistic educational experience for young learners.
