Pre-K Now
Public-Opinion Research

A growing body of bipartisan, public-opinion research, focus groups, and surveys shows that Americans believe their children need high-quality pre-k.  In study after study, we learn that support for early education is strong and that the public understands the benefits to children of high-quality programs.

However, there is still work to be done. Existing public-opinion research can show you how and where to begin when gauging attitudes in your own state.  The research we provide here should be used to help you better understand where the public stands and to inform the questions you ask in your own state.
