I don't know how much JavaScript you know seeing as you only have 36 points here, but here is a very basic run down of how parallax works.

  1. Add an event listener to window object to listen for scroll
  2. On scroll call a function and grab the window objects pageYOffset
  3. Run conditional statements against the pageYOffset
window.addEventListener('scroll', function() {
var yOffset = window.pageYOffset;
if (yOffset >= 300) {
//your code here
}
}
