State of the Nation: A 50-State COVID-19 Survey: Report #11: Perceptions of School Reopening Safety in the United States   [open pdf - 0B]

From the Document: "Parents of school-age children thus confront difficult decisions about their children's education - decisions that will hinge on whether they believe schools can be made safe. We surveyed 19,058 adults in the 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia for 2 weeks beginning July 10 and ending July 26, asking about their perception of the safety of returning to school. We also asked a subset of respondents whether they support reopening schools for in-person classes in the fall. We further aimed to understand whether these comfort levels vary depending on rates of infection in their community, and on other attitudes about COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019]."
