The Impact of Parental Involvement in Creating a Positive Learning Environment for Elementary School Students

This paper explores how parents and teachers view and do parental involvement in elementary schools. It uses surveys and interviews with parents and teachers from two schools. It finds that both groups value parental involvement and its positive effects on students’ learning and happiness. But it also identifies some problems that prevent good parental involvement, like time, communication, resources, and training. It suggests some ways to improve parental involvement and cooperation between parents and teachers.
