The milieu in which a child develops physically, intellectually, emotionally, culturally, and socially is his or her home. A child's entire growth is influenced by his or her family environment.The data for this descriptive research was collected from 300 secondary school students using self-constructed questionnaires.Statistical techniques such as mean, standard deviation, percentage method, t-test, and Pearson's Coefficient of Correlation were employed to investigate the acquired data.This study discovered a significant association between home environment and social adjustment of secondary school students of Kashmir. The data also revealed that when it comes to the home environment and social adjustment, male and female secondary school students had significantly different mean scores.When students were assessed based on their geographic location(urban vs rural), it was evident that rural secondary school students had better home contexts and social adaptations than their urban counterparts. Because the home environment has such a considerable impact on students' social adjustment, it is highly encouraged that they are provided with peace and tranquility at home so that, through valiant efforts, sheer determination, and familial support, they can achieve all of their career ambitions and acclimate well to the society in which they live.
