Your guide to maximizing School Choice benefits
Cater to your child’s unique skills, talents, and needs by taking control of your household’s education tax dollars. We’ve compiled this comprehensive guide to School Choice strategy to help you navigate the options.
Understanding School Choice
Children in the U.S. have the privilege of accessing free public education—but sometimes, public school isn’t the best option. School Choice allows families to devote their child’s portion of public education funds to the educational setting that suits them best, even outside the public sector.
School Vouchers
Use public funding to pay tuition at a
private institution.
Education Savings Accounts (ESA)
Pay for approved education-related expenses
with a publicly funded savings account.
Tax Credit Scholarships
Work with educational nonprofits to
source scholarships and earn tax credits
for your donations.
Tax Credits and Deductions
Utilize state income tax relief for associated educational expenses.
Note that only state governments can authorize and establish School Choice programs and ESAs. Schools must meet eligibility criteria, and setting up these programs involves considerable time, expenses, and organizational hurdles.
Parents can only use School Choice awards at certain schools that meet the requirements. Parents cannot independently initiate a School Choice program; instead, they must participate in existing programs that are authorized and administered by the state.
