This study was conducted to determine the factors affecting the participation of mothers of high school students in guidance and other school activities in Canossa Academy. In so doing, it was hoped that this study would improve mothers' participation and enhance their role as significant promoters of the total human formation of their adolescent daughters. Furthermore, it would be of help to guidance workers and develop an intensive parent guidance education. The two-year training program completes the organized services rendered by the guidance department. This is a positive contribution to the school. To determine mothers' participation in guidance and other school activities, the researcher designed a survey questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of mothers' personal data, rating scale, checklist and ranking. The data on age, educational attainment, occupation, marital status and number of children in Canossa were used to find out if these variables influence mothers' participation in guidance and other school activities. The subjects in this study consisted of 220 mothers of students from second year to fourth year high school of Canossa Academy - Lipa City, whose daughters were enrolled at the said school within the span of three school years (1982-83, 1983-84, 1984-85). After permission had been granted, the researcher disseminated the questionnaire to 300 mother respondents through their daughter with the help of the assistant principal. A letter explaining the purpose of the study was attached. The questionnaires were then retrieved after two weeks. Treatment of the data included the frequency and percentage distribution to determine mothers' reasons for participation or non-participation in the given activities. The theta coefficient was used to find out if age is related to mothers' frequency of participation in each of the given activities, and chi-square was used to find out the degree of association of several variables (i.e., educational attainment, occupation, marital status and number of children in Canossa) to the frequency of mothers' participation in guidance and other school activities. The data were processed with the use of computers. Findings of this study reveal that among the ten school activities held between the school years 1982 to 1985, the three most frequently attended by mothers were: the report card-giving days, family day celebrations and dialogue with class/adviser/teachers about problems of their daughters. It is to be noted that activities organized by Guidance Department were poorly attended. The reasons cited for participation in school activities were love love and concern for their daughters desire to follow-up their daughters conviction that cooperation with and support for the school could enhance the growth and development of their daughters. The reasons cited for non-participation in the school activities were: conflict with their work schedule conflict with their family activities too busy with their business. The five variables, educational attainment, age, occupation, marital status, number of children in Canossa, were found to be not significantly related with the frequency of their participation in school activities. Results of this study made the researcher recommend the immediate implementation of the two-year training program and its inclusion in the school development plan for the school year 1987-1991. It is also recommended that after the first two years the said program be also extended to fathers. 1986-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etd_masteral/19 Master's Theses English Animo Repository Education (Secondary) -- Parent participation Parent-student counselor relationships Volunteer workers in education Mothers and daughters Training and Development
