Nevada‘s new Education Savings Account program, made possible through the passage of legislation authored by Sen. Scott Hammond, is the nation‘s most sweeping and promising school choice opportunity. Any student who has spent 100 days in public school will be eligible to receive between $5,100 and $5,700 per year — which his or her parent may then use to fund private school tuition, home-based education, tutoring and a number of other school-related expenses.
