The Hoover Institution hosted "How Do Parental Perceptions of Schools Vary Across Sectors?" on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 from 11:30am - 1:30pm EST. Education Next released the results of a new, nationally representative survey administered to parents of school-age children.

What do charter school parents think of their children’s schools, as compared to parents with children attending public or private schools? Which group is most satisfied with teacher quality, school discipline, expectations for student achievement, and more?
