To this end, English test was administered to Indonesian senior high school students (n= 222), and questionnaire was to their parents.Path analysis with smartPLS was utilized to analyze the data. The results revealed that the contribution of family background towards parental involvement is significant. However, there are no significant contributions of parental involvement and family background towards students' achievement. No significant contribution is also found between family background and students' achievement through intermediary variable of parental involvement.
