One of the important services offered by Bonifacio Javier National High
School is their guidance service. It is geared to perform case management
and referral services to optimize students' access and engagement in
education. The guidance office is also concerned with facilitating the optimum
development of student and their families, teachers, and non-teaching
professionals, remedying faulty development and preventing short coming.
As the guidance counselors browse their records of the charged student
who committed violations, problems such as misplacing of agreement paper
and tracking the students history of violations are encountered. As it
happens, counselors would not know what disciplinary action will be given.
RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
Moreover, students who witnessed the misconduct of their fellow student
have a fear of retaliation if they send complaints to the guidance office
considering the publicity of the complainants identity, which would not be a
problem unless an online report can be submitted. These matters encourage
the researchers to develop an Online Guidance Office Information System for
BJNHS.
The general objective of this research is to develop, design and
implement an Online Guidance Office Information System in Bonifacio Javier
National High School that will assist the guidance office in providing excellent
quality of services to the students.
The researchers came up with two bases to find out either or one of the
solutions to be chosen is advantageous. The first one is using web-based
system as the users can access the systems from any location. Using a webbased system, students or complainants can report violations anywhere
without fuss of counselors presence. Alternative solution number two is using
local area network (LAN) wherein submission of complaint would be done
inside the school, specifically in ICT laboratory and guidance office.
The researchers adapt the web-based system which can completely establish
a well-organized and efficient way of communication between the guidance
counselors, students and their guardian through online interaction. In addition,
the system has full capability of keeping track of student records.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
This chapter contains the background of the study. It includes the
problem, general and specific objectives, and scope and delimitation of the
project in developing an Online Guidance Office Information System for
Bonifacio Javier National High School.
One of the important services offered by Bonifacio Javier National
High School is their guidance service.
It is geared to perform case
management and referral services to optimize students' access and
engagement in education. The guidance office is also concerned with
facilitating the optimum development of student and their families,
RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
teachers, and non-teaching professionals, remedying faulty development
and preventing short coming.
BJNHS Guidance Office has been using manual procedure in
monitoring the student information. As the population growth of the school
is concern, the guidance office must present a more consistent and precise
data. The guidance counselor experiencing a problem for their current
system on how to easily trace the students information record that involves
their offenses. In this situation, the researcher opted to propose a system
called Bonifacio Javier National High School (BJNHS) Online Guidance
Office Information System. This is a web-based system for managing and
monitoring of student records. This web-based system is designed to check
easily the student record and trace the student status.
The schools guidance office does not have existing application
that handle records of the students, as researchers they would like to
create online guidance office information system that is more efficient, less
consuming, reliable, and simple to access.
Background of the Study
On June 21, 1965, the Old Market site in Barangka Drive,
Mandaluyong was converted to a school site with a land area of 3, 000
square meters known as Hulo Elementary School Unit I. It was in July of
1989 that Mrs. Emelinda Osillio as Assistant Principal and Mrs. Monica
Arandilla, Principal, with the PTA officers requested the change of name of
2

RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
the school to Bonifacio Javier Elementary School to honor the late Mayor of
Mandaluyong whose kins reside at Barangka Drive. In Year 2000, because
of an urgent need of an additional high school, the local government
officials of Mandaluyong decided to make BJES as an Integrated School.
Unfortunately, the school cannot accommodate the whole populace of
elementary and high school students. On July 17, 2002 all the teachers
and pupils of the elementary department were merged to Hulo Elementary
School leaving the school to be solely Bonifacio Javier National High
3
School housing high school students.
As a usual school has, BJNHS has guidance office which is
responsible for the implementation of the disciplinary measures of the
students, student monitoring and the school rules and regulations. The
guidance office also handles the student organization, school events, lost
and found items that belong to students and outside activities.
If the students violate a rule in the said school, the guidance office is
responsible with the disciplinary actions. First and second minor offense
require an promissory note or agreement paper from the students with the
signature of the parent, while the third offense is equivalent to a major
offense and if the violation of the student is too high, it is up to the prefect
of discipline to give a disciplinary action to the students. Disciplinary action
includes Expulsion, Exclusion or Suspension.
RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
The usual problem encountered by the counselor is when the
agreement paper is being misplaced.
That is why sometimes counselors
do not notice that other violations have not been recorded. As it happens,
counselors would not know what disciplinary action will be given.
The
counselors are also having a problem when it comes to finding records
because of the large population.
Statement of the Problem
As the guidance counselors browse their records of the charged
4
student who committed violations, problems such as misplacing of
agreement paper and tracking the students history of violations are
encountered. As it happens, counselors would not know what disciplinary
action will be given. Moreover, students who witnessed the misconduct of
their fellow student have a fear of retaliation if they send complaints to the
guidance office considering the publicity of the complainants identity, which
would not be a problem unless an online report can be submitted.
These matters encourage the researchers to develop an Online
Guidance Office Information System for BJNHS. The researchers had
these questions regarding issues that made us start the study.
1. How to avoid losing of students' information records?
2. What are the difficulties in monitoring students information record?
RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
3. What is the status of the current students information record in terms of:
3.1. Accuracy
3.2. Timeliness
3.3. Security and secrecy
System Design Paradigm
Figure 1 shows the framework design used by the group. The model
includes three phases. The first phase, which is the input phase, includes
all the data gathered from the clients and researches of the group.
The second phase, which is the process phase or the system
development life cycle, includes the planning, analysis, design and
procedure, system development, and the testing and evaluation of the
system and design.
The last phase is the output phase which is the Bonifacio Javier

Objectives
General Objective:
The general objective of this research is to develop, design and
implement an Online Guidance Office Information System in Bonifacio
Javier
National High School that will assist the guidance office in providing
excellent quality of services to the students.
Specific Objectives:
The proposed project specifically aims the following:
1. To design an online guidance office information system that will properly
keep students record.
RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
2. To develop a system that will provide proper monitoring of students record
especially in offenses.
3. To design an electronic database and to provide data accuracy, secrecy
and integrity.
Scope and Delimitation
This section explains the extent and limits of the project to
completely understand the range and boundaries of the study.
The proposed project focuses on computerizing the manual
operation of Bonifacio Javier National High in recording complaints and
problems of students directed to the guidance office. The system provides
different level of access to the users for security purposes. Only the ICT
coordinator and the guidance counselors will serve as the administrators of
the system.
The system will provide an account for the administrators.
Specifically, the administrator has a full access to the system except with
deleting of information within student record. The system will provides a
page where in complainants can report behavioral incident and the system
administrator will evaluate whether the reported incident needs attention.
Complainants can include images and videos to their reports that servers
as evidence.
RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY
College of Engineering and Industrial Technology
If a student is involved in a behavioral incident, the system will
inform their parents by sending SMS notification. The proposed system will
also cover the outside behavioral incident reports as long as it is a student
to student case basis. A GSM modem will be used to send and receive
SMS but alert of new message will only show if the admin goes to message
box of the system.
The data included in the system shall cover from the academic year
2014-2015 for the sole purpose of testing and the maintenance from the
researchers will be one year after the implementation of the said system.
