Know the rule changes before they cost you.
Arizona rewrites the ESA handbook every summer, courts can change documentation rules overnight, and four receipt deadlines hide in the calendar. ESA Watch is one free, short email for all of it — when a rule that affects your wallet moves, and before each receipt deadline. Rule-change alerts are live today; deadline reminders arrive with our launch this fall.
You're in. We'll email you the moment a rule moves — and before each deadline once reminders start this fall. ✓
That didn't go through — mind checking the email address and trying again?
No spam, no daily digest, unsubscribe anytime. We'd rather send you three emails a year that matter than fifty that don't.
What we watch for you
The new handbook, every July 1
The State Board adopts a new ESA Parent Handbook each year. Categories move, documentation rules change, and last year's safe purchase can become this year's repayment letter. We read every line and tell you only what changed.
The supplemental-materials lawsuit
A case pending in Arizona Superior Court could require curriculum documentation for every supplemental purchase — even Tier 1 items like books, art supplies, and educational apps. If it lands, you'll know the same week.
The four deadlines that trigger repayment
Debit-card receipts are due Oct 31, Jan 31, Apr 30, and Jul 31 — miss one, and the state can require you to repay every undocumented dollar, audit or no audit. We'll remind you while there's still time to act (deadline reminders arrive with our launch this fall).
Quiet policy updates
ADE updates allowable-item guidance and debit-card merchant rules between handbooks, with no announcement most parents ever see. We check so you don't have to.
