This article seeks to reflect on the importance of family participation in the educational setting. The search is guided following the literature review procedure using primary sources in the databases of Scopus, Dialnet, Scielo, and several repositories of different international and national universities as secondary sources of information using keywords. In this way, information on family participation in the educational setting and its importance in motivation, students' academic performance, and the “family-school” relationship was organized. The literature found suggests the need to institutionalize educational strategies that cover in a transversal way the various institutional and digital projects aiming at a healthy participation of the family in the educational scenario, without this becoming an obstacle to the methodologies and ways of approaching the educational system. Parental involvement is directly linked to academic success, showing that active parental collaboration in various dimensions of learning is crucial for student development. In this way, the educational setting could offer an integral quality educational service and strengthen the forms of relationship with each of its members.
