Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between family support and the academic performance of learners from elementary schools in East 2 district, Gingoog City division, for the School Year 2022-2023. The one hundred thirty-seven (137) respondents in the study are parents of learners from Punong Elementary School, Anakan Central School, Bagubad Elementary School, Mimbunga Elementary School, and Mimbalagon Integrated School. The study utilized a quantitative descriptive research design that employed a researcher-made 40-item questionnaire. The questionnaire underwent reliability testing using Cronbach Alpha to gather essential data. The collected data were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods such as mean, standard deviation, and Pearson r correlation. The study reveals that the overall level of family support for learners is high, with academic and school support being provided most of the time and mental, emotional, and financial support being provided all the time. Furthermore, the overall academic performance of the learners is satisfactory. Additionally, the findings suggest a significant relationship between family support and the academic performance of learners. Thus, it is important to establish and strengthen family support as a pillar for learners to achieve positive academic outcomes.
