Over its 10-year history, Bluum, an Idaho-based non-profit that supports statewide charter school growth and development, has overseen the dissemination of millions of federal and private dollars for charter expansion and startups. Bluum has released documentation this summer that celebrates its 10-year anniversary and achievements. In that same period, the non-profit cites the creation of nearly 20,000 charter school seats and 38 schools across Idaho. “Idaho is among the most important charter school states in the country, if not the most,” said Jed Wallace, the former president of the California Charter Schools Association and a national charter school advocate. Bluum then began working to secure areas for future school sites that would coordinate with the population growth.
