Abstract
The EFA program empowers families to make the best educational choices for their children by providing financial resources for eligible students to attend an approved private school or homeschool. For the 2024–25 school year, each EFA provided most families with $6,856 per student. Students with disabilities who received a Succeed Scholarship in 202223 were eligible for a higher allocation of $7,618. Funds were disbursed quarterly to support families’ chosen educational options. Parents of eligible students could apply their EFA funds toward enrollment in a private school or, for the first time in 2024–25, toward homeschooling expenses.
