How Schools Work with Us

A Partnership Built for Impact

The Education Covenant Project partners with Jewish day schools to fully leverage the federal scholarship tax credit launching in 2027 — turning new legislation into predictable scholarship funding that reduces tuition for families.

This requires alignment across leadership, donors, messaging, and compliance. Few schools have the resources to undertake this. ECP helps with the heavy lifting.
