Non-facility general fund per-pupil funding request for charter school students
The general fund per-pupil amounts, not including charter school facilities (CIP) shall be the same as the general fund per-pupil for HIDOE schools as explained in HRS 302D-28.
- The process involves two phases, first, a budget appropriation request and then later, an allocation “true-up” to adjust for any differences.
- For the budget appropriation request, the Department of Budget and Finance Director of Finance submits to the Legislature a request based on projections for consideration in the final Budget Appropriations Act [HRS 302D-28(a) and (b)].
- The appropriation request is reflected in the Charter School’s per pupil program.
- For the budget appropriation request, the Department of Budget and Finance Director of Finance submits to the Legislature a request based on projections for consideration in the final Budget Appropriations Act [HRS 302D-28(a) and (b)].
- After the Appropriations Act is finalized, the Director of Finance ensures that an allocation “true up” is done using the October 15th student enrollment count. The true up equalizes the per-pupil funding for both entities [HRS 302D-28(c)]
Capital Improvements Program (CIP)
ʻO ka Capital improvement Budget (CIP) budget is set by the state as part of a comprehensive program to manage state facilities, and is handled separately from the operating budget. Facilities staff work with complex area superintendents and principals to prioritize school-level needs.
