The 10th amendment states that any power not given specifically to the federal government is then reserved for the states. In this scenario, public education is not a power given specifically to the federal government. So this means that each state individually gets to decide how to structure their schools, what standards/curriculum they adopt, and the course load that students in the K-12 grades will complete.
