Americans' Satisfaction with K-12 Schools Hits Record Low, Gallup Poll Reveals

A new Gallup poll, shared exclusively with The Associated Press, indicates that only 32% of American adults are satisfied with the U.S. K-12 school system, marking an 11-point drop in two years and the lowest satisfaction level in 27 years. The decline is attributed to a growing political divide and concerns that schools are not adequately preparing students for college and future jobs.
