Funding

How Idaho funds schools

Idaho funds schools through an attendance-based formula: a district’s average daily attendance is converted into “support units” (Idaho Code §33-1002), which drive a salary-based apportionment paying instructional, pupil-service, administrative and classified staff, with teachers paid on the state Career Ladder. For FY2026 a support unit is worth roughly $154,000. A shift from attendance to enrollment-based funding has been debated but not adopted.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for Coeur D'Alene District are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.
