Introduction

Parents play a crucial role in shading and guiding their children’s academic performance

through their guidance, support, and establishing rules and regulations. This research will

explain the importance of parents’ roles and their impact on the academic performance of

students. Parents play significant roles in shaping academic performance of the G10 students in

MHNHS in various ways. Parents can create an environment that fosters success by

establishing clear expectation and ambition, maintaining good and proper communication, and

adapting rules to individual needs. By doing so, parents can help their children reach their full

academic potential. Parents play a crucial role in the academic performance of students; their

involvement and support can make a great impact on their child’s educational journey. As

parents’ strong allies, students are equipped with the tools and support they need to excel

academically.

It’s important to note that every child is unique and parenting approaches may vary. The

key is to provide an encouraging and nurturing environment that values education, encourages

growth, and helps G10 students develop the necessary skills to improve their education.

Parenting is important in Philippine society because family is viewed as the center of one’s

social life. Family is the primary cell of society where the child’s upbringing must begin since his

birth. Also, many people believe that family comes first, and family is a great source of support

and love for the students.

The role of a parent to a child at any given time cannot be overemphasized. The home is

very germane and crucial to the child’s well-being and development in the future According to. (V.

Hugo) Parents exert a lot of influence on their child’s cognitive development in the early years,

and thus, the contact between home and school should be maintained especially during the

primary school years. Each child is vulnerable and can either be molded to be successful or
made to fail in life. According to the Child Youth Welfare Code of the Philippines, the child is one

of the most important assets of every nation. The promotion and enhancement of a child’s life

and welfare are also anchored on the supervision and guidance given by the guardian for a

child to succeed. The parent’s role in their children’s education presents significant evidence of

when their role in education a priority is. Parents play a significant role in improving students’

academic results when they are involved in their student’s learning. By providing such a better

environment, parents demonstrate their commitment to their child’s education, and it shows the

love and support they have for their children’s education. Harderves (1998)

Furthermore, parents or guardians should actively monitor and supervise their children’s

activity, like homework, projects, to make their children’s lives easier because of their

surveillance and guidance for the student’s education. This role will demonstrate genuine care

and love for their child’s improvement and acknowledge parents or guardians to identify areas

where the child or students may need additional support and guidance. Parents can assist their

children in accomplishing something by being aware of their children’s academic schoolwork

and activities and giving them advice such as how to properly manage their time and know

what’s important. Regular discussions and personal talk about their child’s assignment can keep

them informed about the student’s academic progress and ensure that they are completing their

schoolwork’s diligently, always on time, and not having a hard time finishing or submitting tasks

to the teachers.

Engagement, home, and school come together as a team. Both school and home have a

huge effect on every student’s performance, so it’s great to have a good relationship between

both school and home, as well as the fact that school and home are the center of someone’s life

or education. The school empowers parents and guardians by providing them with ways to

actively participate, promoting them as important voices in school, and removing barriers to
engagement for them to get to know more about the school where their children study.

Examples of engaging activities are including families to join the family association or arranging

virtual family-teachers’ meetings for families with transportation issues. They also include

attending every single event in school that needed parents or guardian’s role for the academic

performances of Grade 10 students. Furthermore, as a parent, your part is to shape and guide

your child’s future. Parents are responsible for many things, like providing, guiding, protecting

and many more, for the sake of their children. Parents are the number one reason for the

students’ behavior and performances because parents are the ones who can give the Grade 10

students true love and care throughout the journey of their children, whether they win or lose. A

parent is always a parent.

And, when their parents or guardians are involved, students are most likely to do well or

even best at school. When they see their parents silently cheering them on, it is already an

achievement for a student, and knowing that the parents are proud. By the parents’

involvement, the students will pursue and strive for more because they know someone is

watching and proud, and it’s someone other than the parents. Also, with the help of parental role

and parental involvement, it affects the students a lot and makes them improve in their studies

knowing that the parent is there at your back, ready to shoulder whenever something is wrong.

Then, the parent role also helps teachers a lot, because teachers are the students’ second

parents at school, whenever the parents are not there. Being cooperative parents is a huge

thing, as in having a good relationship between the parent or guardian and the teacher that

involves the students’ performance.

The academic success of the Grade 10 students at MHNHS is a complex, interplay of

various factors, with parental involvement standing out as a pivotal influence. Good parenting

can have a lot of effects that can lead to victory. This study aims to delve into the specific role

parents play in shaping and improving their G10 children’s academic performances at MHNHS,
as well as to investigate the dynamics of parental support, guidance, and engagement. With the

help of this study, it will seek to shed light on the nuanced ways in which parents contribute to or

impact the educational journey of their adolescents within the school environment.

Understanding these roles is essential for fostering effective partnerships between

parents, educators, and of course students to enhance overall academic outcomes. With this

study, many people can be aware or informed of how important the parent’s involvement and

roles are to the students, especially to their academic performance and activities. The parents can

influence their children to always do their best. Will be discussing the parents’ role? How important is

that? What is the academic role? And what are the major effects of it? What is the parents’ role

in the academic performance of G10 students? What is the parent’s role in the academic

performance of G10 students? To students. Parents or guardians, teachers and eventually to

the whole school.

According to the department of education (Dep ed) it's started that DepEd needs to

educate parents more about how important education is for their children’s future. It also needs

to ensure that parents know the available resources to help their children succeed in school.

Students with less knowledge less involved - parent has shown globally that it has an

impact to its behavior and academic performance.

Child experiencing difficulties in achieving educational outcomes. Additionally, parents

are the first and most important teachers that children encounter and thus, their involvement in

their children's education would accelerate and simplify learning, ultimately resulting in improved

education outcomes ( Moroni et al, 2015) there for parents have a vital role to guide, to help, to

teach, to support, to motivate, and to interact their children to improve its educational outcomes.
 Parent involvement in a child's early education is consistently found to be positively

associated with a child's academic performance (Hara & Burke, 1998; Hill & Craft, 2003;

Marcon, 1999; Stevenson & Baker, 1987). Specifically, children whose parents are more

involved in their education have higher levels of academic performance than children whose

parents are involved to a lesser degree. The influence of parent involvement on academic

success has not only been noted among researchers, but also among policy makers who have

integrated efforts aimed at increasing parent involvement into broader educational policy

initiatives.

According to Gould, (1999), “The research all shows, they say, that children do better

in school when their parents are involved.” Henderson, (cited in Gould,1999 p. 2) found that

parents are involved in school in four ways. The first two are widely accepted: parents serve as

teachers of their children at home and also serve as volunteers and supporters at school.

According to Bryan (2005), children are likely to excel in academics when their parents' actively

participate in their education.

Education is necessary and important to society. Education provides insight, increases

knowledge and skill. It is important to the development of human capital and an individual's

ability to provide a better living. Thus, the education of parents as well as their economic status

is crucial elements to the educational outcomes of students. Economics plays an integral role in

this educational experience, and even plays a substantial role in student confidence, further

exacerbating its influence (Smith, Wohlstetter, Kuzin & De Pedro, 2011).

This study aims to learn the importance of parent’s roles to the academic performance of

the G10 students in Montalban Heights National High School.
