The purpose of this study is to investigate Chinese teachers' perceptions on school and family collaboration. This is a descriptive study with mainly a quantitative approach to solicit the perceptions of seventy-five Chinese teachers toward collaborative effort between the school and the family. The findings of this study clearly indicated that Chinese teachers understood the importance of parental involvement to student success and that they planned to work with parents to foster a positive environment in support of school and family collaboration. It is recommended that a school-initiated comprehensive school and family collaboration plan be developed to accomplish higher efficiency and effectiveness.
