SEAs (State Education Agencies)

State Education Agencies (SEAs) are government bodies responsible for overseeing public education within a state. They develop policies, set educational standards, distribute funding, and support school districts and educators. SEAs ensure that schools meet state and federal requirements, coordinate curriculum and assessment efforts, and monitor student performance. Essentially, they serve as a bridge between the state government and local schools, working to provide quality education across the state by implementing regulations, providing resources, and ensuring accountability.
