Kamehameha Schools Association Of Teachers And Parents

Funded programs to engage parents and encourage their involvement and participation in school activities such as class picnics, spirit night, and other presentations. To ensure that all students of the kapalama campus receive benefits from ks atp, a $4 per student fund was created (the amount was raised from $2 to $4 in fy 2008). Typical uses of these monies include various atp activities such as movies and class picnics. These funds are accessed via the parents and alumni relations office. In addition, ks atp provides several service programs including spirit night and sunset on konia.

Provided educational necessities such as school uniforms and supplies to indigent students identified by teachers and counselors. Indigent students make up a significant portion of the student body. The kokua and makana funds serve students with indigent backgrounds who have special or emergency financial needs. The fund is administered by the assistant treasurer who in turn receives requests and recommendations from the respective principals, vice principals, and counselors. Typical uses for the fund include grants to needy students who cannot afford dress whites, shoes, school uniforms, school supplies, or to pay minor outstanding tuition balances at year end. Although all of the recipients are on full financial aid, financial aid limitations do not cover these types of expenditures.

Social, hospitality and teacher appreciation - providing students and teachers with a small gift to express gratitude and appreciation for their contributions to atp.
