Шаблон:Education in the U.S. The Hawaii State Department of Education (HIDOE) is a statewide public education system in the United States. The school district can be thought of as analogous to the school districts of other cities and communities in the United States, but in some manners can also be thought of as analogous to the state education agencies of other states. As the official state education agency, the HawaiШаблон:Okinai State Department of Education oversees all 258 public schools and 37 charter schools and over 13,000 teachers in the [[Hawaii|State of HawaiШаблон:Okinai]], serving approximately 167,649 students statewide (School Year 2023-24).[1]
The HIDOE is currently headed by Superintendent Keith Hayashi (since July 1, 2022).[2] The department is headquartered in the Queen Liliuokalani Building in Honolulu CDP, City and County of Honolulu on the island of Oahu.[3][4]
Hawaii is the only state in the nation that does not use property tax revenue to fund public education; instead, most of HIDOE's budget is funded from the state general fund which includes revenue from the general excise tax and income taxes.[5]
History
Kamehameha III established Hawaii's first public education system on October 15, 1840.[6] This makes the HawaiШаблон:Okinai State Department of Education the oldest school system in the US west of the Mississippi River, and the only system established by a sovereign monarch. This date denotes when the constitution came into effect, codifying the new ministry of education. The regent of Kamehameha III, Queen Emma, had ordered the establishment of free public schools in all districts in 1834 and this was done by 1836.
Board of education
The board of education members are appointed by the governor of Hawaii with the advice and consent of the Hawaii State Senate. This is in contrast to most other school districts in the United States which are directly elected.Шаблон:Citation needed Hawaii previously had an elected school board from 1966 until 2010 when voters decided to switch back to an appointed state school board.[7][8] Members are appointed for three-year terms for a maximum of three terms.[9]
The Board of Education is empowered by the State Constitution (Article X, Section 3[10]) to formulate statewide education policy. The Board also has the power to appoint the Superintendent of Education, the State Librarian, and members of the State Public Charter School Commission.[11]
There are nine voting members:[12]
- (1) Chairperson, At Large
- (2) Members, At-Large
- (3) Members, City and County of Honolulu
- (1) Member, Hawai'i County
- (1) Member, Kaua'i County
- (1) Member, Maui County
The board also includes a non-voting public high school student member and a non-voting military representative, for a total of eleven members.[13][14][11]
The State Department of Education currently carries suggested benchmarks for each educational grade and subject which are available on its website. However, a law creating a standard state public school curriculum, the first of its kind in Hawaii, did not pass during the 2006 legislative session.Шаблон:Citation needed
Relevant debates
Шаблон:Unreferenced section Probably the most current and controversial debate over HawaiШаблон:Okinai school reform has to do with the structure of the State Department of Education: specifically, whether it should remain centralized or be broken into smaller districts. The main rationale usually given for the current centralized model is equity in distribution of resources: all schools are theoretically funded from the same pool of money on an equitable basis. (Most schools on the U.S. Mainland are organized into school districts funded from local property taxes; thus more affluent school districts theoretically receive more money and resources than less affluent areas.) Supporters of decentralization see it as a means of moving decision-making closer to the classroom, and thus achieving better student performance.
The debate divides roughly along party lines, with Republicans generally supporting decentralization and the Democrats supporting the centralized status quo. In 2002, Republican Governor Linda Lingle ran on a campaign to reorganize the HawaiШаблон:Okinai State Department of Education into smaller school districts that were localed modeled after a system found in Canada. The Democrat-controlled HawaiШаблон:Okinai State Legislature, however, voted not to enact this plan in 2003 and 2004.
In October 2009, the HawaiШаблон:Okinai Department of Education agreed to a furlough program for HawaiШаблон:Okinai's public schools that reduced the number of instructional days by 17 days to a total of 163 days. This is the smallest number of instructional days anywhere in the United States.
