Description

This study determined the extent of parental involvement in various dimensions critical to student success, including communication with teachers, homework monitoring, encouragement of positive learning habits, participation in school activities, and fostering reading habits. The research also examined the relationship between parental engagement and learners' behavior in the classroom, aiming to identify which aspects of parental involvement most effectively predict students' academic and social outcomes. Utilizing a descriptive-correlational research method, data were collected from 100 public elementary learners and their parents at Amai Pakpak Central Elementary School during the School Year 2024-2025. Findings indicated that parental involvement is generally strong, particularly in encouraging positive learning habits and fostering reading. However, there is room for improvement in participation in school activities. The analysis revealed significant relationships between certain dimensions of parental involvement and learners' academic performance and adherence to classroom rules. Notably, effective communication with teachers correlates positively with academic outcomes, while homework monitoring supports discipline and assignment completion. These insights underscore the importance of enhancing parental engagement strategies to support student success and foster a collaborative educational environment.
