Every child’s educational journey is unique—and having access to the right resources can transform a family's quality of life.
This month, we are excited to highlight Sarah from Granger, Indiana! Sarah and her husband, Josh, are parents to three boys. When their youngest son, who has autism, needed a customized learning path outside of traditional school, the Indiana Education Scholarship Account (ESA) program stepped in to help.

Here is Sarah’s story in her own words:
"My youngest son has Autism and was not able to be successful in public school. Several years ago we applied for funds through the Education Scholarship Account. That has made such a difference for his quality of life—we are able to provide individual tutoring for him, supplies needed for homeschooling, and lessons through Hong’s USA Taekwondo."

Thank you, Sarah, for speaking up for Indiana students and sharing your powerful story with our community! 💙

Happy Halloween from the Indiana Education Scholarship Account (ESA) team! 🎃✨

Whether your family is trick-or-treating in the neighborhood, hosting a quiet evening at home, or enjoying a sensory-friendly community gathering, we hope your day is filled with joy, creativity, and festive fun!

To help make the holiday comfortable, safe, and stress-free for all of our ESA students, here are a few tailored tips for tonight:

Tailor the Fun to Your Child: If trick-or-treating feels overwhelming, consider alternative traditions like a festive movie night, a backyard candy hunt, or visiting trick-or-treat stops during quieter, off-peak hours.

Keep Costumes Comfortable: Prioritize sensory needs by choosing soft, tagless layers underneath costumes, testing outfits ahead of time, or choosing festive pajamas instead.

Stay Bright & Visible: Add reflective tape to bags or buckets, and bring along flashlights, glow necklaces, or clip-on lights so drivers can easily spot your group.

Establish a Non-Verbal Code: For non-verbal children or those who find answering doors stressful, non-verbal cues (like tapping a trick-or-treat bag or using flashcards) or carrying a blue/festive bucket can help signal non-verbal status comfortably.

Inspect & Sort Treats Together: Check that candy wrappers are intact before snacking, and set aside treats if your student has dietary restrictions or food allergies (look for houses with teal pumpkins for non-food treats!).

Wishing all of our incredible ESA families a safe, fun, and happy Halloween! 🍬🎃

Answer: Unused ESA dollars do not automatically expire at the end of the school year; parents can roll over unused balances into future account years.

Parents can roll over up to $1,000 in unused funds per school year (plus prior rollover balances) for their student up to age 22. This flexibility allows families to budget long-term for high-value educational services, specialized equipment, or high school therapies.

Log into ClassWallet to check your current balance and plan ahead!

📚 The Region has a lot to be proud of! 👏

📍Here are Lake County’s top 20 schools by 2026 IREAD pass rate. Public AND private—with 12 schools reaching 100%! 🎉

Behind those numbers are kids working hard, teachers helping them grow, and families cheering them on.

Congratulations to every school on this list! ❤️

🏫 We’re fortunate to have great public and private school options in our communities.

Every child is different. What works beautifully for one may not be the best fit for another. Parents deserve options to find the school where their child can learn, feel supported, and thrive.

One test doesn’t tell a school’s whole story, but these results are worth celebrating. 🙌

We’re grateful to live here in the great state of Indiana—and grateful for the people helping our kids succeed.

👇 Give your school or a favorite teacher a shout-out!

"We choose to homeschool our children, including our special needs daughter... When we found out about the ESA program we worked quickly to get my special needs daughter approved last year, and this year all four of my kids are enrolled in the ESA program. This program goes a long way in enabling us to get the curriculum and tools that we need for all four of our kids and also is a great help in getting our special needs daughter the help that she needs."
— Stephen A., Huntington, IN
