EdChoice Information & Explanation

• The state of Ohio recently passed legislation to expand the EdChoice program for the 2023-24 school year. However, prior to the vote, the bill was amended to exclude traditional homeschooled students. The Compass Academy is a homeschool co-op, and as such, we are not eligible for EdChoice funds because we are not classified as a private school by the State of Ohio.
