Dropout rates were observed among secondary schools upon the implementation of the K-12 program. Interviews using survey questionnaires were employed to selected schools in Iligan City. Results revealed that dropout rates among secondary level were relatively high among males against female gender. Major reasons for dropping out for both male and female involved family problems indicating that parents have a major role in educating their children. To control the dropout rates, major interventions must include activities that would promote family case assessment and management; parents, teachers and students bonding affairs; and health intervention programs. These must be supported by all stakeholders including the school administrators.
