q2 · i? · associational · r2
Descriptive analysis of 2017 parent-connection survey items; the brief reports teacher-parent mistrust remained low-level while lack of parental support was a top roadblock for nearly one-third of administrators, and notes response categories changed between 2009 and 2017.
"In 2017, 87 percent of administrators said that mistrust between teachers and parents was only a "partial roadblock" or "not a roadblock" at all (a slight decrease from 2009, when 93 percent of administrators responded that teacher-parent trust was "not a factor" or only "somewhat a factor" to school improvement)."
