Local Education Authorities (LEAs) are organizations responsible for overseeing public education within a specific geographic area, such as a city or county. They manage schools, allocate funding, and ensure that educational standards are met. LEAs play a crucial role in implementing national education policies at the local level. In addition to managing schools, LEAs provide support services, such as special education and transportation. They also work with teachers, parents, and community organizations to address the needs of students and improve educational outcomes. By coordinating resources and programs, LEAs aim to enhance the quality of education in their communities.
