Abstract: This poll was conducted between March 7-10, 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) Only 3 percent of school parents report their child has missed more than 15 days of school this year; (2) Adults and school parents tend to see public schools as more liberal or progressive while seeing private schools as more conservative; and (3) In March, interest in tutoring was highest among Hispanic and special education parents and lowest among rural and Gen X parents. 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 Demographics.
