Idaho H0657 amends public charter school admissions to prioritize certain students and establish non-discriminatory policies.

Idaho H0657 revises public charter school admissions to prioritize students returning to the school, siblings of current students, children of active-duty military, and students transferring from other charter schools. It mandates that admission be nondiscriminatory and determined by lottery or other random method. The bill also requires charter schools to consult independent legal counsel for contracts and mandates that teachers and administrators hold specific certifications.
