[email protected] The study was conducted to evaluate the implementation of SPA in Lapasan National High School that shall serve as baseline information in improving the delivery of the program. The study employed the descriptive statistics, interview and actual observation of the school’s resources and analysis of variance . The findings of the study revealed that Creative Skills Development for students and teachers had higher mean value which could be attributed by the teachers’ educational qualifications and years in teaching while Staff Development, Curriculum Development and Status of Required Facilities have lower value as students and teachers found these criteria as something to be focused on to better serve our learners. Students and teachers’ evaluation on the Special Program in the Arts implementation do not significantly differ as the two mean scores for students and teachers were found not significant at 0.05 level. Some problems identified were insufficient textbook, rooms, musical instruments, costumes and equipment. The initial actions taken include procurement of textbooks and learning materials. It is hereby recommended that school, division and regional offices should provide more trainings for SPA teachers in their respective specialization. Keywords: SPA, Implementation, Specialization, Specialists, Coordinator, Governance
