FRSS Kindergarten Teacher Survey

The patterns in parent and teacher beliefs that were identified by comparing the responses from the NHES: 93 and FRSS Kindergarten Teacher Survey are consistent with earlier research that has examined the emphasis parents and teachers place on different skills and attributes and their attitudes and opinions about kindergarten.
