Transparency and Accountability in Funding

Idaho Falls School District 91’s Finance Department is dedicated to managing resources responsibly and transparently to support the educational needs of our students and staff. By ensuring the efficient allocation of funds, we strive to create a strong financial foundation that enables academic excellence, innovation, and the ongoing success of our schools. We believe in fostering trust within our community by providing clear and accessible information about how resources are allocated and spent. Whether it’s through state funding, federal programs, or local levies, every dollar is invested in the success of our students and schools.

Where Does Our Funding Come From?

1. State Funding

The primary source of funding for D91 comes from Idaho’s general fund, which is generated by the state sales tax. These funds are allocated to school districts based on a formula that includes the number of students who attend school each day.

Restricted Funds: Some state funding is designated for specific uses, such as classroom technology, and cannot be used for other expenses like teacher salaries or textbooks.

2. Federal Funding

The district also receives funding from the federal government, which is earmarked for specific programs, including:

Child Nutrition

Services for Economically Disadvantaged Children

Support for Migrant Families

Programs for Children with Special Needs

These funds are restricted to their intended programs and cannot be used for other purposes.
