What happens to old student activity funds after five years
Read the official text at capitol.hawaii.gov ↗If a graduating class leaves money in a school activity account for five years after graduation, the school must move it to a general school fund unless the class donates it in writing first. Once moved, the school can use the money.
The statute, as written — Inactive student activity accounts
A copy, taken August 20, 2026. The version published by the Legislature is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.
Student activity funds that are left in the school for a period of five years after the graduation of the class shall be deposited into the nonappropriated local school fund account unless the graduating class donates, in writing, the funds to the school within the five-year period. Moneys in the nonappropriated local school fund account may be used by the school.
