Federal Education Administration

The Federal Education Administration refers to government agencies, primarily within the U.S. Department of Education, responsible for developing national policies, providing funding, and overseeing programs to support education across the country. Its goal is to promote equitable access to quality education at all levels, from elementary schools to higher education. The administration works with state and local education authorities to implement federal initiatives, improve educational outcomes, and ensure compliance with laws. While it sets broad standards and provides resources, much of the day-to-day management of schools is handled by state and local agencies.
