Questionnaires were distributed to the respondent groups.  The research employed descriptive-quantitative method. There were 70 respondents, 10 teachers and 60 students from Senior and Junior High Schools. Six of the teacher respondents were between 41-50 years old, majority were females and mean age was 43. Mostly were married and had Complete Academic Requirements. Four (4) specialized in Social Studies and belonged to Teacher I-III positions. Four (4) had served for 6-10 years. The mean year of service was 6. All had attended In-Service Training and had a Very Satisfactory performance. For student respondents, 41 were between 17 to 18 years old and had equal number in terms of gender. The mean age was 17. They had same number for year level. A great number had Very Satisfactory academic performance. Most of the student respondents joined the homeroom organization and were affiliated as members. Based on the results of the study, it could be concluded that the respondent groups’ perception in the implementation of SSG programs and activities was described as Well Carried Out while the status in the performance of its objectives was described as Always. There is no significant relationship between the implementation of SSG programs and activities to SSG objectives, thus the null hypothesis was Rejected. The respondent groups strongly conformed to the statements describing the issues and concerns related to the SSG. It is therefore recommended that in order to sustain its performance and be properly guided in carrying out the strategic roadmap of the organization, student government organization referential guide be transmitted to the concern school officials for consideration.
