EdNext Survey: Traditional Assigned-District Public Schools ‘May Be An Endangered Species’
(CNSNews.com) – Judging by the results of a parental satisfaction survey [1], traditional assigned-district public schools “may be an endangered species,” according to a new report from Education Next [2].
The first-of -its-kind survey [3], which was released Tuesday in Washington, D.C., compared parental satisfaction ratings for traditional assigned-district public schools, private/parochial schools, district schools-of-choice such as magnet schools, and publicly funded charter schools.
“Among the four sectors, parents of students attending assigned-district schools are the least likely to say they are ‘very satisfied’ with their child’s school,” according to the nationally representative survey of 1,571 parents, which was conducted between May 6th and June 13th.
