Can You Use Montana's ESA for a Reading App? Buying Sherwood by Reimbursement

The Sherwood Team

Yes, through reimbursement. Montana's Education Scholarship Account program does not use an online marketplace. Instead, you buy a Sherwood subscription directly from us, then submit the receipt to your program for reimbursement.

About Montana's ESA

Montana's ESA is administered through the Office of Public Instruction. Unlike states that use ClassWallet or Odyssey, there is no vendor marketplace. Families pay out of pocket and get reimbursed for approved educational expenses.

  • Program: Office of Public Instruction ESA
  • How it works: reimbursement, no marketplace

One honest note. Reimbursement approval is decided by your program, not by us. Before you buy, confirm with your program administrator that a reading and audiobook subscription is a covered expense.

How to buy Sherwood and get reimbursed

  1. Start a Sherwood subscription on our site.
  2. Save your receipt. We can also email a receipt or invoice if you need one formatted for your program.
  3. Submit the receipt to your Montana ESA for reimbursement.

What you get

Thousands of kid-chosen audiobooks and ebooks, word-by-word read-along on titles, a profile per child, parent controls, and one family price. New annual subscribers get a free Bluetooth speaker.
