Today was the first day to apply. The process has been farmed out to a vendor. I half expected their system to crash due to the volume. Just wondering how it went. My son will be filing for my grandsons.

Your son’s family is within 250% of the federal poverty guideline?

in 2025, 250% of the federal poverty level (FPL) in the continental United States is: $37,650 for a single person, $64,550 for a family of three, and $104,900 for a family of six.

Nobody will ever see a dime from this except those kids that were already getting vouchers.

He qualifies. His wife left him for another guy, moved out of state, has a criminal history and contributes nothing in support of their three kids. The oldest is a senior , but the two younger ones brothers are in high school and junior high.

The good schools will simply up tuition or not participate. Reading the guidelines perhaps Catholic schools bc they need the money.

Why would they not participate? Over 250 schools have signed on. The funding is over $7,000 per student and covers tuition, books , supplies, uniforms, tutoring etc.

Again, I would like to hear how the application process went. Any glitches?

They will not participate because the majority of their current students pay to not go to school with the majority of the students using the vouchers.

The majority are already on board with it. Admission standards don’t all of a sudden change because they except this.

What if the schools want to raise their tuition? How does that work?

Then they raise tuition. It’s an ESA, recipients aren’t required to use it exclusively on tuition. It can be used on supplies, tutoring, aftercare, etc.

I think it bumps up next year (to 450%?) and the year after is open to all.

That's when the State will have to find the main chunk of funding.
