Questions Tennessee families ask

What is the Tennessee Education Freedom Scholarship?

Universal program created by the 2025 Education Freedom Act. Note: EFS funds are for tuition/fees at a registered non-public school and cannot be used for homeschool expenses — confirm eligibility before relying on it for a home program. It's a universal (or near-universal) education savings account program; funds are managed through State-administered. Approximate award: ~$7,000/yr. Confirm current eligibility and amounts at the official program site.
