AI Summary

This bill establishes new rules for how the state Department of Education's funds are used by school districts and public charter schools in Idaho. Specifically, it mandates that any money provided by the state for a particular purpose, as stated in law or an appropriation bill, must be spent only on that designated purpose. If a school district or public charter school uses these funds for a different purpose, they will be required to repay the misused amount to the state. If they fail to reimburse the state, the amount of the misused funds will be withheld from the next payment the school or charter school receives from the state. This new section, to be known as Section 33-1035 of the Idaho Code, will take effect on July 1, 2026.
