At the higher secondary level, parental involvement continues to be a significant predictor of students' academic performance. This abstract explores the relationship between parental engagement and academic success among students in this educational stage. Research consistently highlights the positive impact of parental involvement on students' learning outcomes, with active parental participation being associated with higher grades, increased motivation, and better overall academic achievement. However, the level and nature of parental involvement may vary depending on cultural, socioeconomic, and individual factors. The population was comprised of all higher secondary level of Lahore district. The instrument was questionnaire. The results indicate that understanding the dynamics of parental involvement at the higher secondary level is crucial for educators, policymakers, and parents alike, as it can inform strategies to enhance student learning experiences and promote academic success.
