DSCUSSIONS OF FINDINGS

LEVEL OF THE PARENT’S INVOLVEMENT

This section presents the parents involvement as perceived by teachers, students and

parents.

Table 1 to table presents the parents involvement as perceived by teachers. It can be seen

by an overall AWM of 3.51 that the teachers observed that parents are involved with the activities

of their children as they often observed indicators of their involvement These observations highly

manifest in giving allowances (4.64 AWM, Always) and in providing for their children’s

expenses in school (4.35, Always). These observations are more of an obligation of the parents to

send their children to school but plays a direct role in the involvement of the parents in their

children’s education. Teachers perceived that parents sometimes help in the assignments and

homework of their children (3.36 AWM), asks what they have learned from school (3.35 AWM)

and checks written outputs (3.23 AWM).

Parents are observed to be hesitant in talking to their advisers about the performance of

their children (2.88 AWM) and in reviewing their children before tests or examinations (2.88

AWM).

ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE

This section presents the Academic Performance of the Grade 7 to Grade 10 students in

the 8 subjects namely Filipino, English, Mathematics, Science, Araling Panlipunan, Technology

and Livelihood Education (TLE), Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao and MAPEH. The Academic

Performance is the grades of the students in the first Quarter of S.Y. 2019-2020 shown using

Relationship Between the Level of Parents’ Involvement and Academic Performance

The relationship of the parent’s involvement and academic performance is analyzed through chi-

square test in SPSS. The null hypothesis below is tested at 0.05 level of significance.

“There is no significant relationship between parent’s involvement and academic performance.”

Table 14 below shows a cross tabulation result between the Parents Involvement as perceived by

Teachers (TP), as perceived by Students (SP) and as perceived by parents (PP) versus academic

performance by Grade level.

Grade 10 0.208 0.251 0.251

It can be seen that the result of the p

value (p) is greater than .05 in all Grade levels. The p value p>0.05 denotes that the hypothesis is rejected

There is significant relationship between the parent’s involvement and academic performance in

all subjects of Grade 7 students.

There is significant relationship between the parent’s involvement and academic performance in

all subjects of Grade 8 students.

 There is significant relationship between the parent’s involvement and academic performance in

all subjects of Grade 9 students.

There is significant relationship between the parent’s involvement and academic performance in

all subjects of Grade 10 students.
