Educational Equity in Crisis: Listening to Parents--The Results of Our Statewide Survey of Public School Parents
Education Trust-West
The Education Trust-West partnered with Global Strategy Group to conduct a poll that tested a long list of potential concerns among parents amidst the coronavirus pandemic and found academic concerns rose to the top. Key findings in this infographic include: (1) In the immediate aftermath of school closures, California parents give positive ratings to schools for their handling of coronavirus and the transition to remote learning overall; (2) There are large gaps between what parents want and what is currently available in the early weeks of school closures -- with access to their child's teacher rated as what parents would find most helpful, even ahead of technology resources; and (3) There are clear gaps that parents feel prevent their children from successfully participating in alternatives to instruction while schools remain closed.
