Piedmont Region school voucher program expansion

Overview

The Piedmont Region expanded its school voucher program for the 2026/2027 academic year by providing 100% funding for all admitted Voucher B applications. This expansion, which covers textbooks, technology, and transport, benefited 76,536 families due to a significant increase in the ISEE economic threshold.

Following the announcement, the region addressed technical difficulties regarding the distribution of digital credentials. Service providers conducted a mass re-sending of approximately 10,500 emails to ensure beneficiaries could access the program before the school year began on September 14. The program involves approximately 900 participating retail locations, and vouchers remain valid for use until March 2027.
