Idaho H0883 allows school districts and public charter schools to spend state funds more flexibly if they meet academic and financial benchmarks.

Idaho H0883 amends existing law to provide school districts and public charter schools with earned autonomy over spending state funds. School districts can participate if they meet top academic benchmarks and financial stability criteria for three consecutive years. Public charter schools can participate if they meet specific academic and financial requirements. Both types of schools can spend their allocated state funding, including discretionary funds, categorical funds, and salary apportionment, in ways they deem best for students.
