I'm late to the party, but there's one more important point here. By having that one IT person at HQ, Google is also reducing the amount of money each school district spends on tech by eliminating / reducing sys admin and support staff. Whether or not this is a good thing overall, I don't know. But public schools like to save money everywhere they can these days.
