Texas Education Freedom Account

Fund your EOS education with a Texas voucher.

The state's Education Freedom Account (TEFA) program can cover the full cost of attending Elite Open School for eligible families. Here's how it works — in plain language.

What is TEFA?

A state-funded account for approved education expenses.

The Texas Education Freedom Account program provides eligible families with state funds that can be used toward private-school tuition — including at Elite Open School. Funds are delivered through an approved digital wallet and directed to your school of choice.

For most families, the annual award is enough to cover EOS tuition in full.
