The participation and commitment of Supreme Pupil Government (SPG) officers are crucial for the student government's effective functioning and the student body's overall welfare. Along this line of thinking, this study aimed to determine the level of participation and commitment of Supreme Pupil Government Officers to school programs, projects, and activities in a first-class, highly urbanized city in the region of Western Visayas, Philippines, during the School Year 2022-2023. Data for this descriptive study was collected from 100 SPG officers using a 45-item self-made survey questionnaire that has passed the rigorous validity and reliability tests. The results of the study showed that the level of participation and commitment of the Supreme Pupil Government Officers to programs, projects, and activities were very high. No significant difference was found in the level of participation of Supreme Pupil Government Officers when grouped and compared according to sex and grade level in the school programs, projects, and activities. Similarly, no significant difference was found in the level of commitment to the area projects. However, there was a significant difference in the level of commitment of Supreme Pupil Government Officers when grouped and compared according to the type of school in the area, its programs, and its activities. The study results call for SPG officers, advisers, school heads, teachers, and pupils to collaborate, conduct period orientations on their duties and responsibilities, and enhance the leadership skills of SPG Officers.
