Resource Allocation: LEAs manage and allocate resources, including budgets and personnel, to support educational programs and initiatives.

Teacher Training: LEAs organize and provide professional development and training for teachers to enhance their skills and ensure effective policy implementation.
Community Engagement: They collaborate with schools, families, and community partners to support student learning and address local educational needs.
Data Management: LEAs track and report data related to student attendance, academic performance, and other indicators to inform decision-making and improve outcomes.
