State Educational Agencies

State Educational Agencies (SEAs) are government organizations that oversee and manage public education within their states. They set education policies, distribute funding, ensure schools meet state standards, and support school improvement efforts. SEAs work with local school districts to implement federal and state education laws, provide resources, and monitor school performance. Essentially, they serve as the central authority for education at the state level, coordinating efforts to ensure all students have access to quality education and that schools operate effectively according to established guidelines.
