This article analyzes the participation of families in school, inquiring about the specific problems that foreign families can present acting as border elements for effective communication between school, teachers and family. The objectives this article responds are: 1) analyze the way in which foreign and native families participate in schools, as well as, 2) the activities organized in the centers with the intention of promoting participation. With an ethnographic methodological approach, the collection of data was carried out in two geographical contexts, Seville and Jaén, in which a case study was developed in a school in each of the mentioned cities. In the light of the data obtained, the participation of families in schools does not depend directly on their foreignness, but on their family's interest in education and school and in practices and actions implemented there in order to provide equal access to participation.
