The present study aimed at investigating the relationship between perceptions of family and school contexts and students’ academic Achievement, along with two mediating variables, i.e., motivation and self-worth and school. Three tests, including parents, teachers and school tests, were utilized in this research and were administered to 325 high school boy third graders in Ardebil. The results of the conducted Path Analysis indicated that perceptions of family and school contexts play a role in predicting the students’ academic achievement. Furthermore, perceptions of family and school contexts could predict motivation and self-worth variables. It is worth mentioning that the predicted value for motivation was lower than that of self-worth at school. In addition, the results of the study showed that motivation and self-worth could predict students’ academic achiement. It was also revealed that unlike “self-worth at school”, motivation didn’t play a meditative role between perceptions of family and school contexts and students’ academic Achievement.
