Federal Role in Education - U.S. Department of Education

World War II led to a significant expansion of Federal support for education.
. . .
The structure of education finance in America reflects this predominant State and local role.
. . .
Second, the Department pursues its twin goals of access and excellence through the administration of programs that cover every area of education and range from preschool education through postdoctoral research.
. . .
And in that same year, the Higher Education Act authorized assistance for postsecondary education, including financial aid programs for needy college students.
. . .
That means the Federal contribution to elementary and secondary education is about 10.8 percent, which includes funds not only from the Department of Education (ED) but also from other Federal agencies, such as the Department of Health and Human Services' Head Start program and the Department of Agriculture's School Lunch program.
