The socioeconomic and behavioral indicators are measures to know the students’ level of environmental awareness, sensitivity, and behavior towards understanding environmental issues. As such, this study was conducted among the students in secondary schools of Iligan City, Lanao del Norte. In-person survey interviews using semi-structured questionnaire were administered to 100 randomly selected respondents. Results showed that students had relatively high level of environmental awareness, possessed good attitudes towards recovery and recycling of materials, and high level of environmental consciousness. Statistical tests showed high significant differences among the students in urban and rural schools that might indicate variations in resolving various environmental issues confronting them. It also showed correlations on the significance of the socio-economic standing parents and their positive response towards environmentalism. Knowledge generated from various environmental issues could be a measure to indicate willingness to learn among the secondary students.??
