Badyet

The Hawai‘i State Kagawaran ng Edukasyon’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.

Budget funding sources pie chart

The fiscal year 2024-25 operating budget funding comes from four sources:

  • Pangkalahatang pondo: 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.
  • Pederal na pondo: 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.
  • Mga espesyal na pondo: 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.
  • Trust funds: May include donations and gifts, foundations & other grants, school athletic program activity collections, and “fair share”.

Direct-to-School Funding

  • EDN 100 ay halos ganap na ipinamamahagi sa mga paaralan gamit ang Weighted Student Formula (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.
  • EDN 150 sumusuporta special education students who may require or have an Individualized Edukasyon Plan.
  • EDN 400 nagbabayad ng mga bayarin sa paaralan kabilang ang imburnal, kuryente, tubig, pagkukumpuni, serbisyo sa pagkain at iba pa.
  • EDN 500 pays for Adult Edukasyon programs at public schools.

Capital Improvements Program budget

The Capital improvement Badyet (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:

  • Kapasidad: Mga Bagong Paaralan, mga bagong gusali ng silid-aralan, pagkuha ng lupa.
  • 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. These may include, but are not limited to: building envelope and infrastructure preservation, structural repairs, interior renovations, site improvements.
  • Health & Safety: Kaligtasan sa trapiko at paradahan, pagbawas sa baha, seguridad/kahinaan, mga mapanganib na materyales, pagbabawas ng init, mga alarma sa sunog, atbp.
  • Pagsunod: Mga proyektong tutugon sa kalusugan at kaligtasan ng publiko, mga utos ng hukuman at mga utos ng pahintulot, at mga pederal na utos tulad ng Americans with Disabilities Act at Title IX Gender Equity.
  • Instructional: New facilities or major renovations to meet particular program requirements of Career and Technical Edukasyon, STEM, Arts, Special Edukasyon, and EDSPEC instructional spaces.
