The purpose of this study was to examine the students’ track and strand preferences after the SOAR (Student Orientation, Awareness, and Redirection) Intervention Program. This action research employed the descriptive quantitative research design using a researcher-made survey questionnaire that were administered to Grade 10 students from Santa Cruz National High School – Junior High School (n=319) and Manuel Francisco C. Ramos Sr. National High School (n=64). Frequency, percentage and ranking were utilized as statistical tool for this study. Results revealed that the majority of respondents opted to enroll at Sta. Cruz National High School – Senior High School. The Humanities and Social Science strand under the Academic Track had the largest number of students who favoured it over the other strands. Furthermore, it was clear that the majority of them chose the Technical Vocational Track over the Academic Track. The findings can be used to improve Career Guidance in the school, especially parents' engagement in their children's career decisions. Similarly, it is suggested that a standardized enrolment process be developed in which students undergo career assessments in order to help direct them in deciding which strand to pursue.
