Parents,
Get the K-12 Education You Choose
Because all Iowa kids need their own path (and place) to excel.
(psst! Iowa offers you a scholarship to send your child to the accredited private school of your choice!)
You have options.
You Aren't Alone
Learn Your Way Iowa exists to give every Iowa kid a chance to excel in their K-12 education. We promote education options for all and empower parents with the information and support they need to access their options and advocate for their kids. This movement is powered by parents passing it on to their friends and neighbors. Because in Iowa, our power is in our community. Learn Your Way Iowa is a project of the 501(c)3 organization Inspired Life.

Iowa Families Love Learning
Their Way!
“When we learned about Education Savings Accounts, we were absolutely thrilled, as we no longer had to carry the weight of full tuition for each of our three children. Making Christian education affordable and therefore, more accessible, to families is an absolute game changer for those who want an academic learning environment grounded in biblical truth.”
The Thomsens, Family of Five, Cedar Falls
Before school choice was a policy, my mother exercised it in her way…She removed me from a failing school and placed me where I could thrive. That choice led me to graduate from college, build a successful career, run for State Representative in Iowa, and even meet the President of the United States. My story proves that parents know what’s best for their children. Long before school choice was a movement, my mother demonstrated its value.”
