The State Board of Education sets academic standards, allocates funding, and establishes policy for 1.4 million students across 312 school districts. We are accountable to every family, educator, and taxpayer in this state.
Our decisions happen in public session. Our data is published quarterly. Our doors — and our comment periods — are always open.
Early Literacy for Every Child
Every student reading at grade level by the end of third grade. We fund 340 reading coaches across 89 districts, with targeted support for English Language Learners and students with dyslexia.
A Graduation That Means Something
Diploma requirements updated for 2025–26 reflect what employers and colleges actually need — computational thinking, civic literacy, and verified workplace readiness.
Equity in Every ZIP Code
Rural and under-resourced districts receive weighted funding that closes the gap between a student's address and their opportunity. Broadband access is now a Title I-eligible expense.
Teachers Who Stay and Grow
Licensure renewal is streamlined to 20 minutes online. Mentorship stipends for first-year teachers in high-need schools. Board-recognized micro-credentials count toward salary advancement.
