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
