A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS.
BE IT
ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
The legislature further finds that after-school programs are particularly needed for middle and intermediate school students. The intermediate years are important for reversing high school drop-out rates and ensuring students remain engaged in their education and community. The R.E.A.C.H. initiative, which stands for "resources for enrichment, athletics, culture, and health", was established in 2013 to meet the need for dedicated after-school programs for public middle and intermediate school students and uses a community-based approach. The R.E.A.C.H. initiative utilizes state funds and partners with schools, parents, and other community-based organizations.
The purpose of this Act is to appropriate funds for the resources for enrichment, athletics, culture, and health program of the department of education to match the federal dollars that the State receives for the federal Nita M. Lowey 21st century community learning centers grant program.
SECTION 2. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $ or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2022-2023 for the department of education's resources for enrichment, athletics, culture, and health program to match federal dollars that the State receives for the federal Nita M. Lowey 21st century community learning centers grant program.
The sum appropriated shall be expended by the department of education for the purposes of this Act.
SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect on July 1, 2050.
