Descriptive- evaluative-correlational research design was used.  Questionnaires were distributed to ninety-two teachers in Naga North District II in S/Y 2025 – 2026. Percentage frequency distribution was used to describe the variables.  ANOVA was utilized to test differences among aspects of digital literacy.  Last, Pearson correlation coefficient was employed to test the relationship of the variables.  
School’s readiness, perspective on ICT, digital literacy, and effectiveness of ICT have all high levels.  ANOVA results indicated F(5, 546) = 6.04, p = .000, pertaining to highly significant differences among aspects of digital literacy.  Pearson product–moment correlation analysis resulted to p = .000), showing significant relationships among school’s readiness, perspective on ICT integration, and effectiveness of ICT integration, and higher levels of teachers’ digital literacy. Thus, a Seminar Training on ICT Integration for teachers is recommended.
