Abstract：
Since the 21st century, American rural education has made some achievements through development and reform, but still faces challenges. State governments have adopted a series of policies and measures to develop and protect rural education from all aspects. The Policy Type Theory provides an analytical perspective on the policy research of American state governments in developing rural education. State governments provide basic resources and power for the development of rural education through distributive policies; Transfer resources and power to rural education vulnerable groups through redistributive policies; The access to rural educational resources and power is guaranteed through regulative policies. The government’s policy of developing rural education reflects the contradiction and unity of government logic, market logic and rural logic. Sorting out the policy experience of American state governments in developing rural education and summarizing the logic of rural education policies can provide useful reference for the formulation and implementation of rural education policies in China.
