| Summary: | In the Philippines, the official languages recognized are Filipino and English, used to teach in educational institutions nationwide. However, the English language is more often used as a medium in teaching the curriculum, which poses a challenge for learners to develop their literacy skills which include the ability to read, write, and speak in the Filipino language in formal learning, especially in high school (grades 7–12). Thus, this study was conducted to assess the level of practice of the Filipino-only policy and the level of literacy in the Filipino language among high school students. This quantitative study utilized descriptive, analytical, and correlational research approaches. The data were gathered from the 324 high school students of a catholic university in Western Visayas, who were chosen using a stratified random sampling technique to represent the whole population. Using the mean and the standard deviation, the result shows that the level of students' practice of the Filipino-only policy in academic-related activities influences their literacy in the Filipino language. Further, by utilizing the mean and standard deviation, the result shows that there is no significant difference in the level of practice of Filipino-only practice and the level of literacy in the Filipino language. Finally, by utilizing the standard deviation, the result shows a correlation between the level of practice of the Filipino-only policy and the level of literacy in the Filipino language. Then it was proposed that the formulation of the concept paper would be conducted for each grade level. |
