Abstract Any country's growth and development can benefit greatly from the good mental health of its youngsters. Mental health (MH) is a very significant aspect of an individual's personality. H.E also plays a major part in personality development. Good mental health makes for balanced relationships with the mental, psychological, and emotional aspects of life. Several factors affect an individual. To conduct this study cross-sectional survey was used to measure the correlation between the H.E and the M.H of secondary school students (SSS), to explore the influence of gender on M.H of students. Data were collected randomly from 86 secondary students studying in classes 9 and 10 of English medium schools of Gandhinagar. The tool used for data collection of home environment was the Home Environment Scale (HES-AASS) developed by Akhtar and Saxena (2011), and for Mental Health, the Mental Health Scale (MHS-TSBA) developed by Talesara and Bano (2017) was used. The findings revealed that 69% of secondary school students have quite good M.H, and 31% of secondary school students (S.S.S) show moderate to poor mental health. Results also showed male and female secondary school students had almost the same level of M.H It was also found that there is a very low positive correlation between home environment and the mental health of secondary school students.
