Florida ESA questions
Not yet as a registered vendor — Step Up uses a reimbursement model, so you pay first and submit the invoice for reimbursement. The process is the same for any approved category.
Instructional Materials — Science. The curriculum is structured, has lesson plans, scope & sequence, and assessments. Florida approves it under that category.
Yes — supplies that are part of an instructional kit are reimbursable. The invoice we send breaks out the curriculum + supplies for transparency.
Simply Earth works alongside PEP. The curriculum is independent — families use it as their science program inside or outside of a PEP school.
