预算

The Hawai‘i State 教育部’s budget plays a crucial role in supporting student success and maintaining the quality 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 schools and fices, from teacher salaries to classroom resources. Meanwhile, the CIP budget focuses on the development, maintenance and upgrading 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:

  • 普通基金: Represents approximately 85% our funding resources. Comes from the State Hawaiʻi’s general fund, primarily state tax revenues. This is the top source funding to the Department.
  • 联邦基金: The second largest source 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.
  • 专项资金: Roughly 4% 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 school facilities.
  • 信托基金: May include donations and gifts, foundations & other grants, school athletic program activity collections, and “fair share”.

直接向学校提供资金

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 funding equity on a statewide basis. The balance EDN 100 is used to support programs such as athletics, JROTC and Alternative Learning Centers.
  • 150 英镑 支持 special education students who may require or have an Individualized 教育 Plan.
  • 400 英镑 支付学校费用,包括下水道费、电费、水费、维修费、餐饮服务费等。
