Terms of Use

Editorial purpose

The content on this site is published as editorial commentary and reference. It is not legal advice, tax advice, or educational placement advice. Decisions about your child’s education should incorporate guidance from licensed professionals familiar with your family’s specific circumstances.

Editorial independence

This site is an independent editorial publication. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any state education agency, school-choice program administrator, scholarship granting organization, or advocacy group. Paid directory placements from providers are clearly labeled and do not affect editorial content.

No application assistance

We do not process, assist with, or accept applications for any state ESA, voucher, or tax-credit scholarship program. Application processes are managed exclusively by each state’s designated program administrator. Links on this site that lead to program administrators are outbound references, not application portals operated by us.

External links

This site links to external websites — state agency portals, program administrators, federal agencies, and third-party resources — as a reader convenience. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices. External links are not endorsements.

Provider submissions

Providers who submit listing information through our intake form represent that the information is accurate and that they are authorized to submit on behalf of the organization. A listing on this site does not constitute our endorsement or warranty that the provider is approved by any state program. Approval status is determined solely by each state’s program administrator.

Accuracy

We make a serious effort to be accurate, but state programs change frequently, sometimes mid-year. Before relying on a specific eligibility rule or award amount, verify the figure against the program administrator’s current published guidance. Our state pages link to the primary source on every page.

Fair-use citations

You are welcome to cite us in your own writing under standard fair-use principles. Please link to the specific page you are citing rather than paraphrasing without attribution.

Re-use

Bulk re-use of our editorial content — including AI training, automated scraping, and republication — is prohibited without prior written permission. Our robots.txt indicates which automated agents we permit. Automated access must comply with our robots.txt file and may not overload, copy, or republish substantial portions of the site without permission.

Disclaimer of warranties

The site is provided “as is.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, The School Choice Index and its contributors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or reliance on any information published here, including damages related to enrollment decisions, application outcomes, or spending of program funds.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from these terms or your use of this site shall be resolved in the courts of competent jurisdiction in Texas.

Updates

These terms were last updated on May 25, 2026.
