House Joint Resolution No. 1 proposes an amendment to Section 9 of Article IX of the Idaho Constitution, which currently mandates compulsory attendance at public schools for children aged six to eighteen, with exceptions for those educated by other means. The amendment seeks to remove this compulsory attendance language and instead enshrine the right of parents to educate their children without government regulation outside of public schools.

The resolution outlines that the proposed amendment will be presented to Idaho voters in the next general election, asking whether they support the removal of the compulsory attendance requirement and the addition of protections for parental rights in education. Additionally, the Legislative Council is tasked with preparing the necessary statements for the amendment, while the Secretary of State is directed to publish the amendment and related arguments as required by law.
