which 3.25 or High is the significant difference. That immense increased in their mean rating was made after
the implementation of interventions. Based on the level of acceptability of the interventions implemented,
all of the various interventions garnered Highly Acceptable with grand weighted mean rating of 4.83. It
implies that Project KRIS interventions provided a big impact to the learners. Thus, that Project KRIS
