West Virginia Law Defines Microschools as Tuition-Charging Alternatives
What happened
Amy Grady supported the 2022 law in West Virginia that defines microschools as tuition-charging alternatives to public school, private school, homeschooling, and learning pods. The state cannot provide a complete count of operating microschools, but the Treasurer’s Office estimates 1,709 students connected through the Hope Scholarship portal this school year.

Why it matters
The law provides families in West Virginia with educational choice. Microschools are described as combining school structure with customized homeschooling. This creates a new class of tuition-charging educational providers within the state.
Evan Hansen and Hollis Lewis are advocating for education system reform in West Virginia.
