A New Partnership to Better Serve Alabama Families and Schools

At Alabama Opportunity Scholarship Fund, we’re always looking for ways to better support the schools and families we serve. That’s why we’re excited to share a new partnership with FACTS®, a trusted leader in school management solutions and part of Nelnet.

This partnership positions us, and our partner schools, well for the future implementation of the Education Freedom Tax Credit (EFTC), which will launch in January 2027. As we prepare for this next chapter in school choice across Alabama, it’s critical that we build systems that are both efficient and familiar.

By working together, we’re streamlining processes for schools while creating a more seamless experience for families. The goal is simple: reduce administrative burden, improve access, and help more students find the right educational environment for their needs.

We believe this model will not only strengthen how these new EFTC scholarships are administered, but also empower our partner schools to grow enrollment and better serve their communities. Most importantly, it helps ensure that families have the tools and support they need to make informed decisions about their child’s education.

This is a step forward...and we’re just getting started.
