Educating children is one of society’s most important functions. As a result, there is a robust area of law dedicated to education. Education law is particularly fascinating because it constantly seeks to strike balances: the balance between ensuring each child receives a standard education, while maintaining a parent’s right to decide what her child should learn; the balance between maintaining student safety, while respecting individual constitutional rights; the balance between accommodating students with disabilities and strict budgetary concerns; and the balance between giving teachers job security and intellectual freedom, while ensuring that they competently educate their students. This section has articles with in-depth information on education law for parents, teachers, student, and school administrators.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In one of the most famous decisions the Supreme Court ever decided,\u00a0Brown v. Board of Education, the Court stated that \u201ctoday, education is perhaps the most important function of state and local governments.\u201d\u00a0 In the United States, education traditionally has been considered primarily a function of state governments, and even within states much of the control of education is given over to local school boards. Every state\u2019s constitution mandates a public-school System, making provision of education a fundamental obligation of the state.\u00a0The languages of state constitutions vary, so the exact extent of that obligation varies, but all states provide public education as a matter of right.<\/p>
