We’re excited to share that Tennessee families now have access to the Education Freedom Scholarship (EFS) program, which may provide eligible students with state education funds that can be used toward approved educational providers.
If you are exploring flexible, Christ-centered online education, this could be a valuable opportunity to partner with NorthStar Academy using available state funding.
What Is the Tennessee Education Freedom Scholarship (EFS) Program?
The Tennessee Education Freedom Scholarship (EFS) program is designed to give families more flexibility in choosing the educational environment that best fits their child’s needs.
Eligible families may be able to use state-provided education funds toward approved educational expenses and providers, including participating private and online schools.
Because program details, timelines, and eligibility requirements may continue to evolve, we encourage families to reference the official Tennessee website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
