A new poll says the public is overwhelmingly dissatisfied with the quality of K-12 education in the United States.
The poll from Gallup found that 63% of people are not satisfied with the quality of K-12 education, while only 36% said they are satisfied, including a meager 8% who said they were"completely satisfied."According to the polling organization, the 36% satisfaction rate is tied for the lowest ever recorded, in 2000, by the group, which has been tracking the metric for 24 years.
Among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents, 44% expressed some level of satisfaction with the current state of K-12 education, but 55% still said they were at least"somewhat dissatisfied." For Democrats, the 44% satisfaction rate was a tick up from the 43% registered in 2021 but a 3-point decline from 47% in 2022. The all-time low for the party was 38% in 2000.The 25% satisfaction among Republicans is an all-time low for the party, which, as recently as 2020, registered a 49% satisfaction rate, but that has declined significantly in the years since amid COVID-19-related school closures and controversies over critical race theory and gender ideology in classrooms.
The lone bright spot in the poll was an overwhelming level of satisfaction with teachers among parents, with a whopping 73% of parents saying their child's teachers are either"excellent" or"good," while 20% said their children's teachers are"fair," and a mere 7% rated their performance as"poor."
