Abstract
This study investigated the management skills of school heads overseeing income-generating projects (IGPs) in public secondary schools across the North Zone of the Schools Division of Ilocos Norte. Utilizing a descriptive research design, data from 11 school heads were collected during the 2023-2024 school year. The findings reveal a diverse landscape of IGPs, emphasizing the critical role of effective management and strategic financial planning for their sustainability. School heads demonstrate commendable proficiency across various management functions, contributing to efficient project management and resource allocation. These findings underline the importance of coordinated efforts by educational authorities and school administrators to ensure the long-term success of IGPs in the region.References
