Law
School board trustee elections
EDUCATION – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding elections for a school board of trustees.

RS30471 / H0240

This legislation amends Idaho Code Section 33-501 to provide that any school district trustee duly elected may serve out their current term of office even though a change in trustee zone boundaries that occurs after they were elected puts their current residence in a different zone. At the end of said term of office, the trustee would then have to run for the new seat or retire.

There would be no fiscal impact to state or local governments.
