Georgia State Board of Education

The Georgia State Board of Education (SBOE), alongside the Georgia State School Superintendent, oversees the Georgia Department of Education. Established by Article VIII, Section II of the Georgia State Constitution, the SBOE consists of fifteen members, fourteen of whom are appointed by the Governor of Georgia. Its statutory responsibilities are to provide all children in Georgia with a high-quality education and to ensure the efficient operation of the public school system. To those ends, the SBOE evaluates local school board decisions, oversees the Quality Basic Education (QBE) Fund, and promulgates state-wide rules related to curriculum, teacher certification, and school board governance.
