Given their enormous effect on educational achievements and overall performance, it is vital to look at how the school environment and family engagement affect children's academic successes. The goal of this study was to evaluate how the school environment and parental engagement influenced kids' academic success. The study used a correlational research technique and a questionnaire to analyse how the school climate and parental engagement influenced kids' academic success. 384 secondary school teenagers in total were chosen at random to take part in the study. Percentage means, standard deviations, correlations, and multiple regressions were utilised to assess the data that had been collected. The study's results indicated that although kids' evaluations of the school environment and their overall academic achievement were modest, they had a favourable attitude towards parental engagement. Students’ average academic achievement showed a strong positive correlation with their mean scores on the perception of the school environment and parental involvement. While both perceptions of the school environment and parental involvement significantly contributed to academic achievement, the contribution of the perception of the school environment outweighed that of perceptions of parental involvement. Therefore, to develop an educational environment that supports and enables each child to fulfil their full potential, educators, policymakers, and parents must be aware of the influence of the school environment and parental engagement on student academic success.
