Today we celebrate West Virginia as a leader in education freedom program implementation. Under the @WVTreasury Hope Scholarship Program, 95% of parents who sought assistance were satisfied with customer service, and four out of five reported no difficultly with the application process: https://t.co/bhpkSbXLty
“The Hope Scholarship was created to put parents in the driver’s seat when it comes to their child’s education, and these responses show families are using that freedom in many different ways,” Treasurer Pack said. “When you have such an open marketplace unique to the rest of the country, it is vital that we know whether it is working well. Clearly, our TheoPay system, which provides an additional layer of flexibility, is a big hit with families based on their feedback.”
