STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS31306 / S1356
The legislation reduces reporting requirements by eliminating the Continuous Improvement Plan requirements.
Replacing the Continuous Improvement Plan with a district’s locally-developed strategic plan provides
increased flexibility in how a district or charter chooses to identify and measure student outcomes that are
important to their local communities. To ensure strategic plan development, specific to student outcomes
and accountability, the bill outlines the frequency and type of school board training required for successful
oversight and accountability. The primary goal of the legislation is to build school board capacity and drive
continued student achievement in Idaho schools. Boards properly trained to review and discuss student
achievement data provide the accountability required to ensure all students learn at a high level.
FISCAL NOTE
No fiscal impact. The same $6,600 per school district and public charter school will continue to be distributed
for board training via 33-320
