Humanities Homework Help

I’m working on a education & teaching discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

It is widely believed that the Federal Government is responsible for, and controls, education, whereas, the provision for education of its citizens actually lies within the power of the states. It is also widely believed that education is controlled by local school boards. However, local school boards have control only to the degree that it is granted by the state. What does all of this mean in simple terms and in light of Federal vs. State control of education? Why is this important in our understanding of school law? In your response, indicate at least two decisions controlled by the states and two controlled by the federal government.
