There are many different schooling options, and we welcome them all under the broad umbrella of choice. But not all educational choice programs are created equal. EdChoice highlights and promotes the programs that create the most pathways for students to lead successful lives. This guide focuses on education savings accounts (ESAs), tax-credit ESAs, vouchers and tax-credit scholarships programs. This year's edition adds a fifth core program type, refundable tax credits, to more specifically reflect the nuances of different program offerings. It also highlights individual tax credits and deductions and 529 savings accounts. These programs are more limited and tend to provide minimal financial assistance to families. This guide introduces the fundamentals of school choice and answers some basic questions about why and how these programs work. This guide is a supplement to "The ABCs of School Choice."
