Why MOScholars matters for Missouri families
Missouri is the original Show-Me state for school choice — MOScholars predates most modern ESA programs. The Empowerment Scholarship offers roughly $6,375 per eligible student per year, and the approved vendor list grows quarterly. Once we're on the list, Missouri homeschool families can use MOScholars funds for the full Recipe Box ($540/year) with about 8.5% of their annual scholarship budget.
