The current study examined changes in adolescents’ school bonding from before to during the COVID‐19 pandemic and its individual, parenting, and family‐level correlates. Participants were two adolescents (50% male; M age = 14 years) and one parent (85% female; M age = 45 years) from 682 families ( N = 2046) from an ongoing longitudinal study. Adolescents reported on their school bonding, stress, and coping, while parents reported on their involvement in adolescents’ education and pandemic‐related financial need. A two‐wave latent change score model suggested that adolescents’ school bonding decreased from before to during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Stress and pandemic‐related financial need served as risk factors, whereas coping and parental involvement served as protective factors against declines in adolescents’ school bonding.
