Yes, Sherwood is on the Odyssey marketplace. Odyssey is the platform several states use to run their Education Scholarship Account programs. If your state uses Odyssey, you can find Sherwood there and pay for a family reading subscription with your scholarship funds.
Which states use Odyssey for Sherwood
Utah Fits All (active now)
Utah runs the Utah Fits All Scholarship on Odyssey. It is a universal program, which means all K-12 Utah residents can apply, with awards up to $8,000 per year. Students cannot be enrolled in public or charter school at the same time.
If you have Utah Fits All funds, you can buy Sherwood through the Odyssey marketplace today.
Wyoming ESA (approved, launching soon)
Sherwood is approved for Wyoming's ESA program, which also runs on Odyssey. As of now the program has not opened for purchases yet. We are approved and ready, so as soon as Wyoming goes live, families will be able to buy Sherwood through Odyssey. If you are in Wyoming and want a heads-up when it opens, email hello@sherwoodkids.com.
A note for Utah families: there are two different programs
This trips people up, so it is worth being clear. Utah has two separate scholarships, and only one of them uses Odyssey.
- Utah Fits All is the universal program, and it runs on Odyssey.
- Children First Education Fund, also called the Carson Smith scholarship, is a separate program for students with documented disabilities. It runs on a different platform called Theo Learning, not Odyssey.
Sherwood is approved in both. If you are not sure which program you are enrolled in, check your award letter, or read Every ESA Program Sherwood Is Approved In for the full breakdown.
