The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological narrative study was to explore the influence of parental involvement on students' success in Title I charter schools in Texas as perceived by middle school principals. Ten middle school principals of Title I charter schools in Texas were interviewed in this study. Each interview was analyzed carefully before combining them to develop a complete picture of the phenomenon. Coding and pseudonyms were used for each participant to maintain anonymity and confidentiality of data and records in the study. The findings suggested that most of the principals considered the parental involvement as a combination of different expectations set for both parents and school. Thus, school and the parents must work together and take joint responsibility for the students' education in school. Other findings from this study also show that charter school principals are experiencing less parental involvement as students move from elementary to middle school. Finally, the findings from this study affirm that all principals strongly believe that parental involvement has a big influence on students' success.
