H 350 Idaho House · 68th Legislature, 1st Regular Session (2025)

EDUCATION – Adds to existing law to provide that funds appropriated to public schools shall be used for the purposes identified in statute or in an appropriation.

H 350 requires Idaho public school districts and public charter schools to use state education funds only for the specific purposes explicitly designated in law or appropriation bills. The bill mandates that misused funds must be reimbursed to the state, with failure to repay resulting in a deduction from the school's next state payment. It directly affects all schools receiving state education funding by enforcing strict budgetary accountability for designated purposes. The law takes effect on July 1, 2025, and aims to prevent diversion of funds from their intended educational uses.
