▶ Show statement of purpose

The purpose of this legislation is to allow any school district the flexibility to convert to a charter district, or any configuration that includes schools as public charters. It gives school districts more flexibility as we reimagine our future schools. It provides the opportunity for all schools to be innovative and incubators of creative ideas. This decision would be left up to the local school board. Interested schools shall submit proposals to the Idaho State Board of Education for consideration

▶ Show fiscal note

There would be no additional funds for this fiscal year as districts would need to develop a plan to convert a school or their district to a public charter.
