Superintendent Ybarra's schedule: Jan. 28-Feb. 1

State superintendent Sherri Ybarra has never had a legislative hearing for her controversial Keep Idaho Students Safe security proposal.

That changes, to an extent, on Monday.

The House Education Committee will hear from Ybarra as she discusses her budget priorities, including school safety.

Here’s Ybarra’s weekly schedule, released Monday morning. (Thursday’s schedule incorrectly lists a budget presentation before the Legislature. This presentation occurred last week, and has been deleted here):
