The Public, Parents, and K-12 Education: A National Polling Report [February 2024]
EdChoice
This poll was conducted between February 2-5, 2024 among a sample of 2,252 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. Results based on the full survey have a measure of precision of plus or minus 2.41 percentage points. Among the key findings are: (1) Just under one-third of parents have seen or heard of at least one violent incident at their child's school. Parents of high school-aged children and those in urban areas have seen or heard of more incidents than their counterparts; (2) Parents are slightly more concerned about bullying at their child's school than they are about cyberbullying. Around 1 in 3 parents are "extremely" or "very" concerned about either issue; and (3) One-third of parents feel at least somewhat negatively about the impact of cell phones on their children's socialemotional development. One-third of parents feel that students should be allowed to have cell phones in the classroom, while two-thirds feel they should be able to have them in schools. This report highlights findings pertaining to: (1) Views on K-12 Education; (2) Schooling and Experiences; (3) K-12 Choice Policies; and (4) Survey Profile and Demographis.
