Welcome to the ECS 50-State K-12 Governance Structures Database

This database contains information about the K-12 governance structures in each state, which are broken into three levels: State, Regional and School District. The state level has information about governors, legislatures, chief state school officers and state boards of education. The regional level has information about regional boards and regional superintendents. The school district level has information about local school boards, local superintendents, schools and collective bargaining agreements.

From this database, you can generate profiles of individual state K-12 governance structures, and 50-state reports on state K-12 governance structures.

Please contact us with questions or comments about the database.
