Discipline is an important component of human behavior, and one could assert that without it, an organization cannot function well toward the achievement of its goals. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of school rules and regulations on students’ perception toward promoting good behavior. The data were obtained from 438 respondents through a mailed questionnaire instrument. The data were tabulated, and Pearson’s chi-square test was applied for inferential analysis. Around 33.1% of the students had a negative perception of school rules and regulations about promoting good behavior, whereas 66.9% of them had a positive perception. A p-value of 0.015 (<5% significance level) indicated that there is a significant association between students’ awareness on school rules and regulations and their perception toward promoting good behavior. Students’ attitudes on school rules and regulations and perception toward promoting good behavior were statistically associated at a p-value of 0.012. Parents’ educational levels had a significant effect on students’ perception toward promoting good behavior. Generally, students’ awareness on school rules and regulations, parents’ education levels, civics and ethical education scores, and students’ attitudes toward promoting good behavior were found as significant effects on perception toward promoting good behavior.
