The Public, Parents, and K-12 Education: A National Polling Report [October 2022]
EdChoice
This poll was conducted between October 7-9, 2022 among a sample of 2,200 adults. The interviews were conducted online and the data were weighted to approximate a target sample of adults based on gender, educational attainment, age, race, and region. Among the key findings are: (1) School parents are much more pessimistic about how their friends' children are doing in school, compared to what they say about their own children; (2) Parents report that communication and support are the most important attributes they need from teachers and school leaders. Transparency is seen as more necessary from school leaders than teachers; (3) In October, economic issues still dominate voting priorities at the local, state, and federal levels. Education increased in priority at the local, state, and federal levels; and (4) One out of three parents think their child's school is political. Republicans and Democrats are about equally likely to say their school takes a political viewpoint. This report highlights: (1) views on K-12 education; (2) views on schooling; (3) pods, tutoring, and extracurriculars; (4) school choice policies; and (5) the survey profile and demographics.
