Keywords:
barriers, senior high school, education, poverty, accessAbstract
Rural secondary student incapacity to access the Senior High School program became a perennial problem in Katipunan, Zamboanga del Norte. That is why getting a decent education is not possible for them. Thus, the study aimed to determine the challenging issues in rural secondary education in the selected Barangays of Katipunan Zamboanga del Norte. The quantitative research method was used with the help of the survey questionnaire to gather the data. The study revealed that the majority of the respondents were from rural areas. Poverty was the leading problem that the respondents faced. Thus, it is strongly recommended that government must provide senior high school programs near their locality and provide necessary subsidies such as food, school supplies, medicine, and clothing so the students not to become hesitant about going to school.
