It focused on determining the extent of the families’ involvement and practices at West City Central School, Cagayan de Oro City Philippines. A survey research design was used to achieve the objectives of the study.

The questionnaires were collected personally, and descriptive statistics was utilized to obtain accurate results from the data gathered. As a result, there were seen opportunities for the families to portray further their roles as primary partners of the school; there were methods employed to promote accepting atmospherefor them; and contrariwise, there were few family education and training opportunities provided; few schools policies related to SPED were created and explained to them; and not all their needs and state’s standards were met.
