Education law is the area of law relating to schools and that deals mainly with schools, school systems and school boards charged with educating our children. Who is Responsible for Public School Systems? The states and local subdivisions are primarily responsible for operating the nation's public school system. Many state constitutions make the public schools a responsibility of the state or local government. Each state develops, maintains and operates its own school system within its own state boundaries, which is why there are significant differences among the states in the management of schools and the mechanism for financing public schools.
