Lawsuit: Charging students fees violates Idaho Constitution

A class action lawsuit filed in federal court in Idaho urges school districts to stop charging students fees.

The lawsuit filed by former Idaho Supreme Court Justice Robert Huntley names every school district in the Gem State as defendants, and posits every K-12 student in Idaho, plus their parents or guardians, as plaintiffs whose rights have been violated.

Huntley says the practice of charging students fees runs contrary to the Idaho Constitution.

Huntley argues the state’s leaders should allocate more funding to public schools instead of having school districts charge fees. (AP)
