The Hawai‘i State 教育省’s budget plays a crucial role in supporting student success and maintaining the quality of our public school system. Our budget is divided into two main parts: the operating budget and the Capital Improvements Program (CIP) budget.
The $2.18 billion operating budget for fiscal year 2024-25, primarily funded by state tax revenue, covers the day-to-day operations of schools and offices, from teacher salaries to classroom resources. Meanwhile, the CIP budget focuses on the development, maintenance and upgrading of school facilities, funded almost entirely through state bonds.
Together, these budgets ensure that our schools are equipped to provide a safe, engaging and effective learning environment for all students. Learn more about the Department’s budgets below.
Operating 予算
資金源

The fiscal year 2024-25 operating budget funding comes from four sources:
- 一般資金: Represents approximately 85% of our funding resources. Comes from the State of Hawaiʻi’s general fund, primarily state tax revenues. This is the top source of funding to the Department.
- 連邦資金: The second largest source of funding represents approximately 11% in expenditure ceiling resources. The Department receives grants from federal agencies including the U.S. Departments of Education, Agriculture, Defense and Health and Human Services.
- 特別基金: Roughly 4% of our expenditure ceiling resource is through special funds. Those coming from revenue-generating activities, including school food services, student bus transportation services, summer school program, after-school programs, adult education, driver education, and use of school facilities.
- 信託基金: May include donations and gifts, foundations & other grants, school athletic program activity collections, and “fair share”.
学校への直接資金援助
- エド100 ほぼすべて学校に配布され、 加重学生公式 (WSF). The WSF gives schools a specific dollar amount for each student, and additional funds for students with certain characteristics, such as qualifying for the free and reduced lunch program (socio-economically challenged) or being English language learners. This creates a transparent model of funding equity on a statewide basis. The balance of EDN 100 is used to support programs such as athletics, JROTC and Alternative Learning Centers.
- エド150 サポート special education students who may require or have an Individualized 教育 Plan.
- EDN 400 下水道、電気、水道、修理、給食などの学校の費用を支払います。

These include instructional supports, statewide testing, administrative support (personnel, technology and fiscal), community programs such as A+ and adult education, complex area administration, the early learning office to provide pre-kindergarten programs, as well as the Board of Education そして Office of the Superintendent.

Capital Improvements Program budget
The Capital improvement 予算 (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.
Like the EDNs for the operating budget, CIP appropriations are added into planning categories that direct how the funds can be used. Funds appropriated are expended in categories such as:
- 容量: 新しい学校、新しい教室棟、土地の取得。
- Repair & Maintenance (R&M): Major R&M projects that extend the useful life of a facility or provide for greater functional/operational efficiency through a significant improvement or upgrade.
