State education directory

Your state. Your starting point.

Education agency contacts for all 50 states and the District of Columbia, through the U.S. Department of Education’s official directory.

Open a state listing to find its education department and other education contacts. K–12 and higher education may be handled by different agencies; choose the office relevant to your question.

These are agency contact listings, not a list of approved or accredited schools. Private-school registration, institutional authorization, and accreditation are different questions. Check the appropriate authority for the information you need.
