Research findings consistently reinforce the existence of significant relationships between home-school collaborations and student achievement. There appears to be a need to investigate effective methods for securing home-school collaboration. The overall purpose of this study was not simply to look at the academic gains made by children, but to systematically examine the variables that link the child to a successful school environment. A fine-grained analysis was carried out on a series of parent, student, and teacher variables, following the implementation of a parent volunteer training program within the context of four fifth and two sixth grade classrooms. One hundred and thirty two students, seventy-eight parents, and six teachers served as participants in the investigation. A before and after comparative group design was used to test four null hypotheses. Pre-test scores were compared prior to treatment. No differences were found across groups prior to the introduction of treatment conditions, Post-test scores were then utilized to test the null hypotheses using a series of 2 x 2 x 2 Multivariate Analysis of Variance procedures. Students, parents, and teachers were administered questionnaires to measure attitudes, perceptions, and efficacy as related to parental involvement. In addition, student reading and math scores obtained from the 1995-1996 and 1996-1997 school years to assess the gains and differences obtained during the school year in which the parent volunteer program was in place. Overall, the results indicated that parent involvement in the classroom can be attributed to academic achievement. Parent, student, and teacher attitudes, practices and perceptions were also found to be attributed to group effects. The experimental group had higher gains than the control group. Significant interactions effects for groups and grades were found for teachers and parents. Significant grade effects were found for teacher and student variables. Given the results reported above, the parent volunteer program seems to be a useful strategy to enhance the active involvement of children in the overall school-home learning process. Most importantly, programs such as parent-volunteer programs can increase positive attitudes by parents and teachers, thus creating an environment in which learning is supported by all participants.
