ABSTRACT

—— — Communication between parents and schools is essential in school-related activities. The goal of this research is to determine the impact of enhanced parent-school communication through mobile apps and portals to gen z learners’ academic performance. The study looks into the various mobile apps and portals that schools use for parent-school communication and how frequently they use them. Furthermore, it investigated the influence of improved parent-school communication on the academic achievement of Generation Z learners. Furthermore, the study assessed how mobile apps and portals affect the academic achievement of gen z learners, as well as other strategies to improve communication. This study’s respondents were 70 teachers from Cataingan National High School, Cataingan West District, SD O Masbate Province, chosen through simple random sampling. A quantitative research method was used in the investigation. The data found that while all 70 teacher-respondents stated that Facebook/Messenger was the only mobile app used for parent-school contact, barely half of the parents frequently used the said mobile app. However, the findings demonstrated that this communication software improves the academic performance of gen z learners. Similarly, teachers are at ease with parents’ involvement in school-related activities. Teachers also believe that this involvement leads to gen z learners’ improved academic achievement since it has a significant impact on the success of the educational process of raising youngsters. Aside from the mentioned mobile apps and portals, the respondent suggested that building relationships with parents, home visits and parent-teacher conferences, providing actionable information, and issuing shorter, more frequent communications are other ways that schools can involve parents in improving the overall learning experience.
