Governor Little failed Idaho students, teachers, and our great public schools.
A new watchdog report shows that taxpayer dollars given to Idaho Home Learning Academy (IHLA) — once pitched as a virtual-school option — have been spent on things like water-park tickets, video games, streaming services, even private-school tuition.
Meanwhile, IHLA shifted millions away from teacher pay into private vendors, leaving education more about profit — not learning.
Now, Brad Little is backing a massive $50 million voucher scheme that funnels public money into private schools with almost no accountability.
If the state won’t even safeguard funds for a virtual charter school — how can we trust it to protect money sent to private, potentially unregulated schools?
Idaho taxpayers … our kids deserve real, accountable public education. Don’t let tax dollars ride the Wild West trail of unregulated “school choice.”
