K-12 education satisfaction in U.S. ties record low

Americans' satisfaction with the quality of K-12 education in the U.S. has fallen six percentage points in the past year to match the record-low 36% reading on this measure, which Gallup has tracked for 24 years. In contrast, parents of K-12 students remain largely satisfied with the quality of the education their oldest child is receiving, as 76% say they are "completely" or "somewhat" satisfied, significantly higher than the 67% low on that measure from 2013.
