Individuals who are visually impaired and blind are a growing population. In fact, the blind and severely visually impaired (BSVI) account for 15 percent of our worldwide population, and 2-3 % of these individuals are children in the school systems around the United States (Bhardwaji, 2018; Ghayyor et al., 2018; Olwan, 2017). Therefore, academic inclusion is essential for this population, as its growth is undeniable. The problem to be addressed by this study is that lack research that establishes the effects of parental involvement of BSVI student's related to their children's academic success. This is problematic in that often this population is associated with higher dropout rates, behaviors in the classroom and low academic success (Coduti et al. 2017; Ghayyor et al. 2018; Tiwari et al. 2015; Zorluel Oser, & Chabaroglu, 2018). The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study is to understand the lived experiences of parents who have BSVI students, involvement in their child's academic progress. Epstein's type of family involvement is the framework that guides this research. This qualitative phenomenological study examined the perceptions of parents who have blind or severely visually impaired children's involvement on their academic success. The current study is exploratory in nature and it involves a purposeful sample of 10 participants chosen from all socioeconomic groups to represent the population of parents of BSVI student from 5th to 9th grades. The researcher used semistructured interviews, which were led by pre vetted and approved questions to provoke in-depth, and lively conversations with the participants. Examination of the data revealed 7 themes, which developed into 4 major themes and one minor theme. The major finding results included: 1) Parents of BSVI students believe that their involvement at home leads to their child's academic success. 2) Parent of BSVI students believe that their child's academic success in a mainstream/inclusive classroom is essential for their child's future independence. 3) Parents should be active in school activities. 4) Parents need to be advocates for their BSVI children to assure adequate supports are put in place for their academic success. The study concluded that parents of BSVI students believe that they are an essential element to their child's academic success. They feel that all parents should be involved in their child's academics, even more so for parent's of BSVI students. The parent's noted that in some cases they have not been afforded the opportunity to advocate as much as they would like to for their child, but it is not because they have not tried. In some instances, parents perceived that the school marginalized their impute at times, not realizing how valuable their impute is to their child's success. It is recommended that future research would be to include teachers of BSVI students and school administration, to determine what they need from parents to help them be more successful teaching this population.
