Abstract
Student academic achievement is a critical issue for educators and policymakers worldwide. Parents and schools play important roles in promoting student academic achievement. This study aims to investigate the impact of parental support and school environment on student academic achievement. To do so, we employed a quantitative approach using a survey research design. Data related to parental support and school were obtained by distributing two survey questionnaires to a total of 167 elementary school students, purposively drawn from diverse groups of Catholic elementary schools in Merauke District, South Papua Province, Indonesia. Meanwhile, data related to academic achievement were obtained by getting students’ academic transcripts. Obtained data were subjected to an inferential statistics analysis technique using the software SPSS version 21. The results of data analysis showed that parental support and school environment have a direct impact on student academic achievement, both partially and simultaneously. These findings underscore the importance of parental support and the need to create a supportive and positive school environment to improve students’ academic achievement.
