The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education is a state agency responsible for overseeing the Commonwealth's K-12 education system and adult basic education. Its responsibilities include managing school finance and district support, student assessment, curriculum and instruction, educator preparation and licensure, as well as oversight of charter schools, vocational-technical education, English language learner programs, student support services, and special education. Based in Everett, Massachusetts, the department functions as the primary statewide authority for elementary and secondary education. In January 2024, the department released a list identifying schools with higher rates of chronic absenteeism in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Its role also intersects with broader state higher-education efforts, including collaboration with the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education on teacher training and partnerships involving vocational-technical schools.
