Abstract
School adjustment is the process of adapting to the role of being a student and to various aspects of the school environment. Failure to adjust can lead to mental health issues and school refusal or school dropout and may require school counseling. The present study focuses on school adjustment, and academic achievement among school students face many adjustments in school. From year to year, there are changes in teachers, classrooms, school and class rules and procedures, performance expectations, the difficulty of the work, and peers. Their successes in negotiating these challenges predict academic achievement. If a child is well adjusted to his environment, then he or she will be motivated to excel in the activities assigned during school, and it leads to academic achievement. Academic achievement is greatly based upon adjusting abilities of children. An individual is not born adjusted; it is his or her capabilities that make his or her adjusted in any environment. Maladjustment leads to devastating lifelong impacts on the child’s personality. It is very important to study and find out favorable and unfavorable situations which affect child’s adjustment and gradually it leads to academic achievement. As school is the foundation of our life, it should be strong enough to construct an empire in the future.
