2 RELATING TO RATES OF TUITION FOR ATTENDANCE IN A SCHOOL DISTRICT; AMENDING
3 SECTION 33-1405, IDAHO CODE, TO AUTHORIZE A SCHOOL DISTRICT BOARD OF
4 TRUSTEES TO APPLY FOR AN EXEMPTION TO ANY PORTION OF A TUITION RATE CALCU-
5 LATED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.
6 Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:
7 SECTION 1. That Section 33-1405, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby
8 amended to read as follows:
9 33-1405. RATES OF TUITION -- TUITION CERTIFICATES. The state department
10 of education shall prepare and distribute all necessary forms; and shall issue
11 to each school district, annually, a tuition certificate bearing a serial num-
12 ber, which certificate shall authorize the receiving district to charge and to
13 bill for the tuition of its nonresident pupils where tuition has not been
14 waived.
15 In determining tuition rates to be charged by any creditor school dis-
16 trict, the state department of education shall compute the sum of that
17 district's maintenance and operation costs, depreciation on its buildings,
18 equipment, and other property, and the interest, if any paid by it on bonded
19 debt or registered warrants. The said state department of education shall then
20 compute what proportion of the sum of said costs, depreciation and interest is
21 allocable to elementary schools, and what proportion is allocable to secondary
22 schools, in the district. The proportion allocable to elementary schools shall
23 then be divided by the average daily attendance of elementary school pupils,
24 and the proportion allocable to secondary schools shall be divided by the
25 average daily attendance of secondary school pupils, in the district, and the
26 amount so determined shall be the gross per-pupil cost, elementary or second-
27 ary, as the case may be. The net per-pupil cost shall be the gross per-pupil
28 cost less the per-pupil apportionment to the district of any foundation pro-
29 gram funds.
30 Computations of tuition rates shall be made as of the school year next
31 preceding the year for which tuition charges are determined and made.
32 Charges for tuition made by any creditor school district shall be its net
33 per-pupil cost, as hereinabove defined; except that its gross per-pupil cost
34 shall be charged where any pupil has transferred to the creditor district by
35 transfer other than one prescribed by section 33-1403, Idaho Code, or where
36 the home district of any pupil attending school in the creditor district is
37 without the state of Idaho.
38 The board of trustees of a school district may request a waiver from the
39 state board of education of any portion of the tuition rate determined pursu-
40 ant to this section. A waiver request must be made for each individual stu-
41 dent, and may be requested for up to four (4) years, subject to annual review
42 by the local board of trustees. Waivers must be requested before April 1 of
43 the year prior to the operative date.
