Public Schools Lax on Discipline, Most Americans Say in Poll

A national poll released this weekend shows American adults continue to believe public schools are not doing enough to discipline students. A Rasmussen Reports poll unveiled Sunday shows 78 percent of American adults believe its tougher for teachers to maintain discipline in the classroom compared to the past while 62 percent of those surveyed believe public schools are too easy on discipline. Only 5 percent think public schools are too tough on discipline while 19 percent think its about right.

Rasmussen took a similar poll in July 2011 which showed 68 percent of American adults think public schools are too lax with discipline.

The poll of 1,000 American adults was taken from Feb. 19-20 and had a margin of error of +/- 3 percent.
