I live in Australia. Here, there are no school districts, and local government has nothing to do with public schools - they are all state-run and funded out of the state government budget. The state government does rely in part on property taxes, but also has other revenue sources, so abolishing property tax wouldn’t have any direct impact on education funding here. I don’t see any inherent reason why a US state couldn’t adopt the same public education model.
