Abstract. This study examined the effects of sleeping habits on the academic performance of Grade 12 senior high school students at Buenavista Integrated School during the School Year 2025–2026. Specifically, the study investigated how environmental, physical, mental, and psychological factors influence students’ sleeping habits and whether these habits are associated with their academic performance. A descriptive–correlational research design was employed. Data were collected from selected Grade 12 students using a researcher-developed questionnaire to assess sleeping habits, while academic performance was measured through students’ official General Weighted Average (GWA) obtained from school records. Descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, were used to describe students’ sleeping patterns, while inferential statistics were applied to examine the relationship between sleeping habits and academic performance. Results revealed that students’ sleeping habits were highly influenced by environmental, physical, mental, and psychological factors, with environmental conditions showing the highest mean score. The overall academic performance of the respondents was satisfactory, with a mean GWA of 82.71. However, correlation analysis indicated no statistically significant relationship between sleeping habits and academic performance (r = .020, p = .843). Furthermore, no significant differences in sleeping habits were found when respondents were grouped according to sex and age. The findings suggest that although sleeping habits are strongly shaped by multiple personal and environmental factors, they may not directly determine students’ academic performance within the context of this study. The study recommends that schools promote awareness programs on sleep hygiene, stress management, and time management to support students’ well-being and learning effectiveness. Encouraging healthy sleep practices remains essential for maintaining students’ physical health, emotional stability, and overall academic readiness.
