This study assessed the implementation of guidance services in secondary schools within General Santos City, focusing on fundamental functions performed by guidance offices, including individual inventory/cumulative records, educational and occupational information, counseling, testing, research and evaluation, follow-up and referral, and extension services. The research employed a descriptive-evaluative design, emphasizing judgment in the evaluation process. Participants in the study included 60 guidance advocates and principals or school heads from secondary schools in the DepEd Division of General Santos City. A meticulously validated survey questionnaire served as the primary tool for evaluating the services, with data analysis conducted through weighted means. The findings indicated areas in counseling and research and evaluation services that require intervention for improved implementation. Specifically, the study highlighted the inadequacy of guidance counselors for effective counseling and the limited capacity of guidance offices to conduct research and evaluation. To address these gaps, an intervention program was proposed, aiming to enhance the overall implementation of guidance services in secondary schools.
