"Science education programs" include, but are not limited to, demonstration programs intended to encourage knowledge of and interest in the disciplines of science among Idaho's elementary and secondary school students.
The state department of education shall administer this program with such funds as are appropriated to the science education program. Competing grant applications shall be evaluated and funding decisions shall be made based upon the department's judgment as to the probable effectiveness of the various proposals in furthering the purposes of this act.
