As lawmakers in many states gear up for new legislative sessions in January, polling once again found strong support for school choice measures among American voters.
On Thursday, yes. every kid. released a new survey of 1,000 voters and school parents who broadly agreed about the need for more flexibility and parental rights in education.
Among the findings:
- 54% of respondents believe the current K-12 system is too inflexible;
- 62% agree that more family control would benefit all students;
- 63% support universal access to public schools;
- 68% support open enrollment policies;
- 60% support education tax credits;
- 63% support education savings accounts (ESAs), a popular form of school choice;
- And 71% of the respondents who support ESAs also believe they should be universal and not limited by income or other factors.
