Most public schools wouldn't have the budget to allocate a staff member to create and maintain such a distro. It would also take quite some time to flash to all of the devices.

The management tools built into chromeOS are also mature and very compelling to schools. Most schools don't see the value of reinventing the wheel when a mostly ok solution that takes no extra effort is already available.

that's also a factor, but having some of these tools developed on a national level could be useful.

Every time such a thing is attempted, the government officials are bribed by Microsoft to stop the project.

Happened in Munich for example.
