Choose Act Website

The Alabama Department of Revenue has announced the launching of a new website, designed to help families apply for funds to participate in the state's school choice program.

This, after the state legislature passed the "Choose Act" earlier this year. The new website offers valuable instruction on how to apply for up to seven-thousand dollars per student in school choice funding.
