Abstract : This study explored the relationship between family involvement and the social-emotional development of first- year BSED-English students. Using a descriptive-correlational design, data were collected via validated surveys measuring family involvement and social-emotional competencies, including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. Results showed high levels of family involvement, particularly in communication and home-based support, while students’ social-emotional development was strongest in relationship skills and social awareness, and weakest in self-management. Correlation analysis revealed a moderate, significant relationship, indicating that greater family engagement is associated with stronger emotional regulation, interpersonal skills, and adaptive behaviors. The study highlights the vital role of families in fostering students’ emotional well-being and recommends enhancing parent–school partnerships and programs that support students’ social-emotional growth
