Views of K-12 education improving from record low: Gallup

Americans’ views of the K-12 education system improved from last year’s record low opinion of the institution, according to a new poll from Gallup. 

Satisfaction with K-12 is up 7 percentage points, going from 36 percent in 2023 to 43 percent in 2024.  

Still, 55 percent say they are completely or somewhat dissatisfied with K-12 education. Only 9 percent are completely satisfied. The average trend over the years sits at around 45 percent completely or somewhat satisfied, according to Gallup.
