(2) Monies allocated to schools implementing Kako'o (secondary transition) activities are to be used to pay for materials, supplies, equipment, travel, training, ground transportation, and the salaries and fringe of part-time temporary teachers to support the successful transition of students into post-school options.
(3) Monies allocated to schools implementing Makua Hanai (parent and community involvement) activities are to be used to pay for materials, supplies, equipment, travel, training, and personnel costs including the salaries and fringe of part-time temporary teachers to support family and community involvement.
