| Governor C.L. "Butch" Otter's State of the State Address
Finance, Finance--State Budgets/Expenditures
-- Recommend a General Fund allocation for public schools that is about 5-and-one-third percent less than this year's appropriation.
Business Involvement, Economic/Workforce Development, Postsecondary
-- Advance Project 60 – which involves almost every element of state policy – from education and workforce development to quality of life and recruiting foreign investment and trade. Project 60 is designed to strengthen both rural and urban communities. The Innovation Council will be involved in the project by providing a practical and business-oriented approach to turning ideas into jobs and economic activity--this will involve coordinating the efforts of our colleges and universities and other research partners – public and private – to quickly and efficiently determine what works and how it can be applied in the marketplace.
Governance, Governance (Postsecondary), Leadership, State Boards/Chiefs/Agencies, State Policymaking
--Reorganize the education policy and governance system on the state level with the goal of clarifying responsibilities and lines of authority. The plan seeks to return the Board of Education to the policy-setting mission envisioned in the Idaho Constitution and reinforce the State Department of Education's role as THE state agency responsible for K-12 education. Many operational functions now in the Boards' hands will be shifted to the Department of Education or the Department of Self-Governing Agencies.
