Taken as a whole, these studies found a positive and convincing relationship between family involvement and benefits for students, including improved academic achievement. This relationship holds across families of all economic, racial/ethnic, and educational backgrounds and for students at all ages. Although there is less research on the effects of community involvement, it also suggests benefits for schools, families, and students, including improved achievement and behavior.Among the studies reviewed here, the benefits for students include:• Higher grade point averages and scores on standardized tests or rating scales• Enrollment in more challenging academic programs• More classes passed and credits earned• Better attendance• Improved behavior at home and at school• Better social skills and adaptation to school
