H 452 appropriates $3,577,600 from the General Fund to the Idaho Digital Learning Academy (IDLA) for fiscal year 2026, directly affecting Idaho public school districts, charter schools, and students using IDLA's online courses. The bill reduces the tuition IDLA can charge districts from $75 to $40 per student enrollment and increases the state funding rate from $430 to $445 per enrollment. It requires IDLA to submit a detailed report by August 2025 showing costs per course type and enrollment data to verify funding.
