Parents across the nation overwhelmingly want their children back in school, in person and full time, according to a new survey of more than 4,700 Epoch Times readers with school-aged children.

Currently, 35 percent of respondents’ children are at school five days a week. Almost 24 percent are completely virtual, while some 34 percent are doing a combination of at-school and virtual schooling. Seven percent are either homeschooled or have multiple children on different schedules.
