Memo

EdTrust-Tennessee believes we must prioritize robust, transparent investments in our public schools, ensuring every child has the chance to succeed. EFS directs more than 900 million taxpayer dollars to private institutions over the first five years of the program, undermining the very foundation of an equitable, accessible public education across our state.

Before signing up, students and families deserve to know the real cost of EFS and what’s at stake. Once public dollars leave our public schools, they don’t come back.
