DC School Choice: Scholarships for Opportunity and Results Act

Discretionary/Competitive Grants

DC SOAR

The District of Columbia School Choice funding via the Scholarship for Opportunity and Results Act (SOAR) provides low-income parents residing in the District of Columbia (District) with expanded options for the education of their children. This program is part of a broader school improvement effort in the District that is founded on the belief that all education sectors (public schools, public charter schools, and nonpublic schools) can offer quality education experiences for the District’s students, and that those students who are the most economically disadvantaged have the least access to such experiences.
