Building Texas’s Future – One Student at a Time
Over 60% of Texas’ K–12 students may be eligible for an ACE scholarship, yet many remain stuck in underperforming schools solely due to their zip code. Every child deserves access to a quality education—no matter where they live.
Over 70% of families WANT school choice, but only a fraction have access. ACE Scholarships is changing that by offering partial scholarships to eager students.

Our Model Works
Since launching in 2017, ACE Texas has provided a solution.
Last year, over 4,500 students applied for an ACE scholarship—but more than 2,400 were turned away largely due to a lack of funding. The demand is real and the results are proven, but we need your help.
