Abstract: During the past twenty years, 1966-1986, a political phenomenon has been occurring in the American Sun Belt states—the centralization of public education governance began to be passed from school boards to general assemblies in the twenty-one states from Virginia to California. Such issues as teacher evaluation, teacher competency testing, teacher in-service competency testing, student competency testing, interscholastic athletics regulating pass/play, school district mergers, the drop out rate and school finance are but a few of the legislative activities. A review of recent legislative enactments and judicial decisions establishes that while there has been decentralization at the national level, there has been centralization at the state level.
