AI Summary
This bill aims to streamline Idaho's education laws by removing outdated or unnecessary provisions, as part of the Idaho Code Cleanup Act. Specifically, it repeals several sections of the Idaho Code related to public school financial requirements, pay for success contracting (a method of funding social programs where payment is contingent on achieving specific outcomes), reporting on high-performing schools and teachers, school building energy efficiency, and various diploma types such as STEM, biliteracy, and workforce readiness diplomas. Additionally, it removes provisions concerning tax apportionments related to mine net profits and other tax-related matters. The bill also amends Section 33-1002 of the Idaho Code, which outlines the educational support program, by removing a reference to "pay for success contracting" from the list of deductions from total state funds. Finally, it amends Section 33-3304, concerning appropriations for the department of education at Idaho State University, by removing a clause that would have applied Section 33-3305 if a memorandum of understanding was not approved, and declares an emergency for the act to take effect on July 1, 2026.
