It was guided by three objectives which included: determining the relationship between parents’ employment status and students’ academic achievement in selected secondary schools in Buhara Sub-County; examining the relationship between parents’ education level and academic attainment among students in selected secondary schools in Buhara SubCounty; and, determining the effects of family income on education attainment among students in selected secondary schools in Buhara Sub-County. It was guided by hypotheses such as There is no significant relationship between employment status and academic achievement among students in selected secondary schools in Buhara Sub-County; There is no significant relationship between parent’s education level and academic attainment among students in selected secondary schools in Buhara Sub-County; and, There is no significant relationship between family income and academic achievement among students in selected secondary schools in Buhara Sub-County. The study used a cross-sectional research design, employing both qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis methods. Using a purposive and simple random sampling technique, a total of 200 respondents were selected to participate in this study.
