Abstract: Amidst of swift socio-economic shifts and escalating educational competition globally, students' academic prowess has emerged as a paramount yardstick for assessing the quality of education across nations. Academic performance not only serves as an evaluative gauge but also significantly intertwines with students' future earning potential, lifestyle, and the overall progress of a nation. This study delves into the impact of familial factors on the academic performance of tenth-grade students within a high school setting. Employing a descriptive research approach, the investigation scrutinizes a cohort of 100 students during the academic period of 2021-2022. The study explores various aspects of the home environment, including family size, economic status, parental education, accessibility of learning resources, internet connectivity, and household dynamics, aiming to understand their influence on students' academic achievements. While factors like family size, economic condition, parental education, and resource availability exhibit substantial correlations with academic performance, this study found insignificant associations between academic outcomes and family structure, lighting conditions, ventilation, home space allocation, and household chores. Upholding ethical considerations, participants' consent, confidentiality, and privacy were prioritized throughout the research process. This investigation sheds light on the pivotal role of familial elements in shaping students' educational experiences, emphasizing the significance of tailored attention and conducive home environments in fostering academic success.
