Local Education Agencies (LEAs) have primary responsibility for the operations and maintenance of public school facilities, as well as for long-term facilities planning, design, financing, and construction. State-level management related to elementary and secondary public school facilities varies widely.
In most states, there are multiple state-level agencies and entities with authority over school district buildings and grounds. The primary agency is usually the state education agency responsible for PK-12 public education. However, some states have established independent public authorities to manage state-funded capital funding and oversight.
