The increasing reliance in school regarding the performance task intensive learning environments has raised concerns about their possible impacts on students well being. This quantitative research aimed to investigate how such environments in school affect the social,psychological, and physical well- being of the senior high school students at Lourdes College. To conduct this quantitative study, the researchers utilized a descriptive- correlational design that explores the relationship between the complexity, frequency, and time demands of performance task and different dimensions of student well- being. A total of 600 participants willingly participated in the focus group discussion and the researchers employed online survey questionnaires as data collection tools. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between the performance task intensive learning environments and students well- being, highlighting the necessity to innovate educational strategies that balance academic rigor with the wellness of students.This research also contributes to filling the gap in understanding how the assessments of performance task influence the students well being within the educational context in the Philippines.
