February 2020 marked launch of a first-of-its-kind new initiative for the Raise Your Hand Texas Foundation. With the release of the 2020: Texans Trust Teachers report, RYHT committed to an annual poll of Texans’ attitudes toward public education. The poll was modeled after the longstanding national PDK Poll of the Public’s Attitudes Toward the Public Schools. Langer Research Associates, PDK’s polling firm and the producer of the ongoing ABC News/Washington Post poll for ABC, conducted the research. As a Graphic Design and Production intern, I supported a Senior RYHT Designer in creating press-ready versions of charts from our poll, callout graphics of specific stats, PowerPoint slide templates, and motion graphics visualizing data.
