School choice in Florida

School choice in the U.S. state of Florida is a suite of state programs that allow families to use public resources to receive education outside of their neighborhood public school. Florida's Tax Credit Scholarship (FTC) program is the largest of its kind in the U.S., with more students than all but the state's largest school districts.

In March 2023, Florida's school choice program expanded by removing the income-eligibility requirements that were part of the previous programs. This made all students eligible for taxpayer-backed vouchers as of the 2023-2024 school year.

Florida's public school options include magnet schools, academies, charter schools and other programs. Private schools provide additional options.

Private school scholarships are funded by Step Up For Students and AAA Scholarship Foundation.

From the school year 2019-20 through the school year 2022-2023, enrollment in Florida's private schools grew to 445,000 students, an increase of 47,000. During the same period, the number of homeschooled children in the state rose to 154,000, an increase of 50,000 Enrollment in the state's charter schools rose by 68,000 students in the same three-year span of time.
