This study aimed to know the effectiveness of using e-texts in enhancing the performance in reading comprehension of the Grade 11 - TVL students of San Isidro National High School, Tagkawayan, S.Y. 2019-2020. This study used a pre-experimental research design using pre-tests and posttests. The researcher used mean, MPS (mean percentage score), and z-test to test the significant difference. The Mean Scores of the Pre Test averaged 6.848 (elementary) while the Post Test mean, 22.455 (intermediate). The Mean Percentage Scores (MPS) of the Pre Test MPS was 17.120 (Low) while the Post Test MPS was 56.140 (average). The test statistic Z equaled to -24.97, was not in the 95% critical value accepted range. Therefore, H[subscript 0] was rejected. The researcher recommended: (1) training both students and teaching staff in the use of digital texts to optimize their learning outcomes for school governing personnel; (2) using different strategies and practices when reading digital among teachers; (3) teaching of technology skills explicitly to primary and sometimes secondary students is seen as a necessity for developing 21st century skills in children for both teachers and students; and (4) developing digital texts that are user-friendly in developing new reading enhancement programs among teachers.
