Abstract- The study was focused on the school learning environment as perceived by the engineering students and its relationship with Mathematics performance. Tit utilized the descriptive method of research. Documentary analysis was done for the Mathematics performance. A standardized instrument was used to measure the level of agreement of students on the factors of the school learning environment. The data gathered were analyzed with the use of Percentage, Mean and Pearson Product Correlation. There was strong agreement on the factors of the school learning environment relative to student support, affiliation, professional interest, mission consensus, empowerment, innovation, and work pressure. However, the agreement was only noted in terms of resource adequacy. Majority of the student performed satisfactorily and very satisfactorily in Mathematics. However, it was also noted there were some who got poor performance. There was a significant relationship between school learning environment and Mathematics performance. The present study has shown how a school learning environment model can be applied to study the effect of learning environment on the performance of students. Keywords- Engineering Mathematics performance
