Abstract:

The study determined the correlations among parents’ demographic profile, level of parental involvement, and pupils’ academic performance in the modular distance learning of Kasiglahan Village Elementary School. This study utilized the descriptive correlational research design. Primarily, it aimed at describing two or more variables and discovering the relationships that occur between or among them. A stratified random sampling technique was used to select the three hundred seventy-seven (377) parent-respondents in the study. The respondents rated themselves as ‘much involved’ in home discussion (M=2.39, SD=0.58), ‘much involved’ in home supervision (M=2.47, SD=0.57), ‘much involved’ in school communication (M=2.40, SD=0.59), and ‘involved’ in school participation (M=2.32, SD=0.64). Over-all, the level of parental involvement is ‘much involved’ (M=2.40, SD=0.59). The results of the chi-square correlation revealed that the number of household members that are studying (p<.01) is significantly correlated with pupils’ academic performance. Furthermore, eight (8) of the indicators of parental involvement are correlated with pupils’ academic performance. This research study gave birth to Project AGAPAY “Aral na may GAbay habang nasa PAmamahaY”, the main objective of the dissemination, utilization, and advocacy plan of the project is to promote and intensify the parental involvement to improve pupils’ academic performance.
