Chronic Underfunding of Idaho Public Education
Manage episode 351744616 series 3428202
In this episode of IEA's HOTLINE Podcast, we discuss Idaho's decades of chronically underfunding Idaho public schools and cascading impacts it has on students, learning and public school educators. The panel discusses the Idaho Legislature's continued failure in meeting its constitutional mandate to provide an equitable public education to all Idaho students, how that failure creates uneven learning outcomes for students and how bonds and levies at the local level have taken on an outsized importance for local school districts.
Joining the conversation for this episode are:
- IEA member and Idaho Sen. Janie Ward-Engelking, who is a member of the Senate Education Committee and member of the powerful budget-writing Joint Finance and Appropriations Committee
- IEA President Layne McInelly
- IEA Executive Director Paul Stark
