This poll was conducted between September 16-17, 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) About a third of parents believe their child's school is political. One in five feels the school is either too conservative or too liberal; (2) Seven in ten Americans have heard about teacher shortages in the last month. Four in ten heard about public schools losing students. News media appear to drive this information -- rather than friends, family, or schools; (3) Two-thirds of Americans say they respect K-12 teachers. At the same time, nearly 60 percent also feel teachers are undervalued. Respect for school board members is about half that for K-12 teachers. One in three adults feels school board members are overvalued; and (4) In September, roughly one-third of parents indicated they were participating in or seeking learning pods. 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.
