If accepted, such funds shall be used for the expansion and enhancement of academic curricula, for the support of interscholastic activities, for the initiation or support of musical, forensic, civic, technologic, or similar extracurricular instruction or programs, for special trips or activities supporting core school activities, or other programs or activities of substantial benefit to the educational environment of the school district.
