Using Your Homeschool State Funding: FAQs for Families
If my state is supported, how do I actually use homeschool funding to buy on Curriculum Express?
While processes vary from state to state, here’s a general framework you can follow:
- Find your state on the page and follow the specific instructions provided.
- Many states require you to apply for a scholarship or education savings account (ESA) via an official portal.
- After approval, you’ll typically purchase items through a linked platform (like ClassWallet, TheoPay, Odyssey, or MyScholarShop).
- Often this requires taking a screenshot of your Curriculum Express cart and uploading or scanning it to complete the purchase.
- Some states offer reimbursement—you pay upfront and then submit receipts for reimbursement, while others directly handle funds through integrated platforms.
What are ESA Funds?
ESAs, or Education Savings Accounts, are state-managed, publicly funded accounts designed to give parents more flexibility in directing educational resources for their K‑12 children. These aren’t traditional savings accounts—instead, states allocate public education money per student into these accounts, letting parents spend it on approved educational expenses of their choice.
