Who does what and why About ½ the states have constitutions
which mention education – thus it is the responsibility of the state.
In the others states the power is local. Why – in the US constitution the Tenth
Amendment says if a power isn’t explicitly stated it is “reserved” for the states.

deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws”
