This report shares results from a multi-mode survey of 1,200 active-duty military servicemembers, veterans, and their spouses. The goal was to gain a better understanding of the view of military households and families toward K-12 education, especially regarding current developments in expanding educational options and access. Also to learn more about attitudes toward the military profession as a whole. The survey sought to address the following three research questions: (1) How do servicemembers, veterans, and their spouses view different types of K-12 educational choice policies? (2) What are military families' experiences in K-12 education and local district schooling? and (3) What are military respondents' views and attitudes toward the military profession and their priorities?
