The bill amends Chapter 10, Title 33 of the Idaho Code by adding a new section, 33-1035, which establishes strict guidelines for the use of state-distributed funds to school districts and public charter schools. It mandates that any funds allocated for specific purposes, as identified in statute or appropriation bills, must be used solely for those designated purposes. If a school district or public charter school misuses these funds, they are required to reimburse the state, with the misused amount being deducted from future state payments to the institution.
Additionally, the bill declares an emergency, making it effective starting July 1, 2025. This legislation aims to ensure accountability in the use of state funds within the education system, reinforcing the importance of adhering to the intended purposes of allocated resources.
