STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 17865
This legislation makes a technical correction to Idaho Code.
When the State Board of Education removed the requirement that
Idaho's public elementary schools be accredited, it had an
unintended impact on teachers teaching in those elementary
schools. Under Idaho Code, as currently written, teachers
receive an additional salary multiplier of 3.75% for each year
that they teach in an "accredited" public school, up to a maximum
of 13 years. Since elementary schools are no longer accredited,
this means that elementary school teachers would not receive
their annual salary multiplier increase for teaching an
additional year. This legislation corrects this unintended
impact.
FISCAL NOTE
Since the Public Schools budget already includes base funding for
the additional years of experience earned by elementary school
teachers, there is no additional fiscal impact as a result of
this legislation.
