Portal for St. Joseph School Gagalangin and it aims to provide the students, teachers,
and registrar personnel of the school a system that all three would benefit. Students will
get to view their grades and breakdown of fees through the student portal and the
teachers would be able to give out grades that will be posted on each student’s
accounts. The situation is that they still heavily rely on paper-works, although they have
a system that has certain records of students, they still operate in paper works.
The research proposed for St. Joseph School Gagalangin is to provide them with
a system that they can manage, and maintain for their benefit. The researcher will

system to that the students may see their grade through a student portal. The problem is
that both students and teachers still heavily rely on report cards handed out every
quarter of the school year. Students on the other hand are subjected to go to the school
whenever it is the releasing of grades and before that, advisers/teachers must hand
write their grades on a hard copy report card. Students must also return the report card
within a week to their advisers for another retrieval of report card for the next quarter.
Those who lose their report card are subjected to pay a fee. We would like to create a
student portal that can be used by the registrar, teachers, and especially the students.
The teachers who are presiding at the registrar, Mr. Rodrigo Pering and Ms.
Maureen Alianza, wants to view the grades on a system, so that they may view the
grades without the need to check individual student report cards once in a while.
The solution that the proponents see on the problem is to create a system which
the students, registrar and teachers can utilize in viewing various records available to
them. The system proposed is also designed to eliminate the chances of the student

The Student Portal is open to all the parents or guardians of the students and of
course the students itself of St. Joseph School Gagalangin. The system will cover
student and teacher related information, which can be viewed in order to see their

According to Rauv Siv, that not having an effective way to distribute pressing
information to parents causes problems for everyone, students and teachers alike will
likely suffer the same if it is not solved. Rauv proposed 5 solutions to overcome such
travesty and will help in keeping the students, teachers, and parents happy. Having a

Synthesis
Based on the views of different authors from what the researchers have gathered
in the Related Studies and Literatures, it all points out on how having a student portal
can be convenient to use. Providing the ability to access data anywhere, a student portal
gives the user another way to gain information at will. It also makes it possible to encode
grades just by typing and that can be helpful for teachers. One more thing pointed out by
the authors is that, having a portal means it is easy to use, easy to operate, and easy to
manage. According to Siv Rauv that quick access to school and student data is critical

information on the go wherever they are, thus having a Student Portal that compromises
the necessary information that the guardians and students can see.

The researchers had created an output that will produce the objective of the
study. To evaluate the system, surveys have been conducted to the target users to see
the major feedbacks from the system. Feedbacks that are gathered from the target users
had helped the researchers to improve the Student Portal of St. Joseph Gagalangin.

The system was made using PHP, accessible through internet and both
personnels and students have their own accounts to access the functions designated for
them. It is a student portal which the students can see where every quarter, they will be
graded by their teachers. Teachers on the other hand may use the function of the
website to register each student grades, specifically students on the class that they
handle.

Conclusion
1.) The system improves the work flow and data processing of St. Joseph School’s
record keeping.
2.) The student portal helps the students see their grade even if they are away from
school.
3.) There are still some functions needed to be added to greatly increase the efficiency
of the system.
Recommendation
The researchers recommend the Student Portal for St. Joseph School Gagalangin
to future researchers, so that they may add a better UI and simplify the functions further.
Integrate the finance system of the school to the student portal so the system can
update the students account balance. Adapt the system to another programming
language so that the functions can be more efficient, especially in the data flow of the
student portal.
