The 28th Annual Phi Delta Kappa/Gallup Poll of the Public's Attitudes Toward the Public Schools.

Elam, Stanley M.; And Others

Phi Delta Kappan, v78 n1 p41-59 Sep 1996

The 1996 Phi Delta Kappan/Gallup Poll found that people oppose using tax money to support nonpublic schools and reject privatization of schools' basic instructional functions. People generally rate their local schools highly, believe educational improvement is more important than deficit reduction, and believe the Democratic Party is more interested in improving education than the Republican Party.
