Education Savings Accounts and Charter Schools: New Opportunities in School Choice

Nineteen states have established Education Savings Accounts (ESAs), providing families with the purchasing power to direct their children’s K-12 education. The allowable uses of these accounts vary by state, but ESAs largely cover private school tuition, tutoring, curriculum and instructional materials, and—increasingly—individual courses at public schools. Join Executive Director for School Choice at the Florida Department of Education, Adam Emerson, as he hosts leaders in the ESA space and in Florida charter schools as they share lessons learned and what that means for a nation that will continue to see ESAs grow.
