Education Freedom Accounts (EFAs) in Arkansas are part of a universal school choice program established by the LEARNS Act. These accounts provide eligible families with up to 90% of the state’s prior year per-student foundation funding amount. The funds can be used for various educational expenses, including private school tuition, fees, uniforms, and other required costs.
The program aims to empower parents by giving them the financial means to choose the best educational setting for their children, whether it’s a private school or homeschooling.
