Can You Use South Carolina's Education Scholarship Trust Fund for a Reading App?

The Sherwood Team

Yes, with one small difference in how it works. South Carolina families in the Education Scholarship Trust Fund program can use their funds to get a Sherwood family reading subscription. Sherwood is an approved vendor through ClassWallet in South Carolina.

About the SC Education Scholarship Trust Fund

South Carolina's Education Scholarship Trust Fund (ESTF) gives eligible families state funds to spend on approved educational expenses. Funds are managed through ClassWallet, and educational subscriptions like Sherwood qualify.

  • Program: SC Education Scholarship Trust Fund
  • Marketplace: ClassWallet (set up as direct pay)

In South Carolina, Sherwood is configured as a direct-pay vendor rather than a browsable storefront. The funding still flows through ClassWallet. The steps just look a little different from a normal marketplace checkout.

How to buy Sherwood in South Carolina

Because this is a direct-pay setup, the simplest path is to email us at hello@sherwoodkids.com. Tell us you are an SC Education Scholarship Trust Fund family, and we will walk you through paying through ClassWallet and get your account set up.

What your funds get you

One family subscription: thousands of audiobooks and ebooks for kids, word-by-word read-along on titles, a profile per child, and parent controls. New annual subscribers get a free Bluetooth speaker.
