ESA Scholarships (Nationwide Overview)
Across the U.S., more states are offering Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) or similar programs that allow public education funds to follow the child, not the system.
While the details vary by state, ESAs generally allow families to use funds for:
• homeschool and microschool tuition
• learning pods and part-time programs
• tutors and academic support
• curriculum, materials, and technology
• some therapies and enrichment
Why this matters for founders and parents:
• families have more flexibility without paying everything out of pocket
• programs don’t need to look like traditional schools to be sustainable
• smaller, relationship-based learning models become financially possible
This isn’t just a Florida thing.
Arizona, Utah, West Virginia, Arkansas, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio, North Carolina, and others are expanding or rolling out versions of ESAs, vouchers, or universal choice programs.
The big shift:
Funding is slowly moving away from institutions and toward families.
It’s one of the quiet mechanisms behind microschools, pods, and alternative learning models growing nationwide.
If you’re navigating ESAs in your state (as a parent or founder), drop your state below and I’ll help point you in the right direction or break down what to look for.
