School is a competitive environment where students are expected to fulfill a variety of activities and responsibilities. To effectively manage academic stress necessitates coping qualities. Thus, due to online class learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, perceived stress is linked to lower happiness levels as measured by state and trait measurements. Further, this study employed a descriptive correlational design to determine the relationship between the variables among 157 senior high school students. As a result, the statistical findings show a significant relationship between stress and happiness (r=.038).
