    Student engagement in school isa crucial factor as it affects their academic performance, enables positive interpersonal relationships, prevents disruptive behaviorand reduces school dropout rates. It is thus important to understandwhich factors are involved in engagement, as well asthe family’s importance. This quantitative and correlational research aims to establish a link between parental support and students’ engagementin school, as well as identify which specific parental behaviorsare significantly related to their children’sengagement in school . The sample consisted of 330 students in the 10thyear of schooling, from a secondary school in Lisbonarea. Two questionnaires were used: the Escala de Envolvimento dos Alunos na Escola (EAE-E4D)(StudentEngagement In School Scale-cognitive, affective, behavioraland agencydimensions) and the Student Perception of Parental Support Scale(which consists of eight items on parental behaviors, as perceived by their children, in what regards school matters). The results point to a moderate positive relationship between the total sums of the two questionnaires, as well as a positive relationship between the total sum of the student perception of parental support scaleand all the dimensions of the student engagement in school scale. The following parental behaviorsthat are related to pupils' engagement inschool were identified: trust in their children; praise on achievements in school and encouragement; as well as active involvement in school matters, such as helping with homeworkand being aware of what children need to study. These results corroborate revised studies and will allow for the development of psychoeducational intervention guidelines amongst students and their parents.Key words:Student engagement in school,parental support.
