Introduced Text

Idaho H0741 establishes provisions for public charter schools to earn autonomy in spending state funds.

Idaho H0741 amends existing law to allow public charter schools to spend their allocated state funds, including discretionary funds, categorical funds, and salary apportionment, in a manner they deem best for students. This autonomy is contingent on the school meeting certain academic requirements and not being a virtual school. Participating schools will have their funding adjusted based on prior fiscal year per-pupil funding and changes in statewide education funding and school population. They will also be exempt from certain reporting requirements.
