The research paradigm was a qualitative study, grounded theory. Data was collected using face to face open interviews. It was then coded and analyzed. The report revealed that, students' indiscipline is not as a result of students' role alone but a combination of factors such as poor parenting practices, poor work morale and motivation among teachers, poor relationship between teachers and school administration and overly centralized decision making in schools. I concluded that the issue of strikes is continuing in secondary schools in Lugari District. This conclusion paved way for recommendation that appealed for measures that will minimize strikes in the District.en-USSchoolCommunityTeachersParentsSponsorsStudentStrikesLugari DistrictKenyaPublic schoolsPerception of the school community (teachers, parents and sponsors) on the causes of student strikes in Lugari District of Kenya public schools
