Implications of PR Plans1. STUDENT FACTOR-major indicator of Academic Delinquency, FOCUS on

INTERNAL COMMUNICATION; Through the TEACHER - MENTORING-

Online /Offline

2. PARENT FACTOR- subject of EXTERNAL PR COMMUNICATION- Invitational

FORUM First Semester - Orientation on Policies;

Second Semester- OPEN HOUSE or

Parents Forum

1. TEACHER- as major player of Internal/External Marketing Communication

2. EXTERNAL PUBLICS- Regular Visit or Community Service

• Consider academic advising inclusive of online means aside from the usual offline mentoring/ advising

• Monitor problems encountered by students, those they considered significant persons

• Connect with parents/ guardians semi annually

• Limit extra curricular activities that affect academics, instead integrate them in classroom settings; instead from separating it with academic activities

• Develop faculty and employees to use online mentoring/counseling to monitor online activities of students using social media and electronic means

• Create compensation plan that motivates faculty to perform additional counseling/ advising in both online and offline means.
