The participants of the study consist of 552 secondary school students (280 girls, 272 boys) with an average age of 12.6. As a data collection tool, the inventory “School Attachment Scale for Children and Adolescents” adapted to Turkish by Savi (2011) was used. In data analysis, t-test and one-way analysis of variance were used. Girls’ school attachment level found to be higher than boys. As students’ age and grade get higher their school attachment levels fall. The level of involvement in school of the students whose parents have a higher economic condition and a higher educational background is more than the students whose parents have a lower economic situation and educational background. It was found that the level of involvement in school of the students, whose academic achievement level is higher, is more than the students whose academic achievement level is lower
