Using MOScholars funds for YouDance in Missouri

Missouri's tax-credit-funded MOScholars ESA (statewide since SB 727 in 2024, income-capped at 300% of free/reduced-lunch level or IEP) covers curriculum and materials, but home-educating families must register as a 'Family-Paced Education' (FPE) school rather than a traditional Missouri homeschool to participate.

Verification comes first — then the paperwork is on us.

Ask us anything
  1. 1

    Ask your program administrator about YouDance

    MOScholars (Missouri Empowerment Scholarship Accounts Program) pays approved vendors directly, so out-of-pocket reimbursement generally isn't an option. Ask your administrator whether YouDance can be requested or added for your award.

  2. 2

    Tell us you want YouDance in your state

    Vendor applications are driven by family demand. Email [email protected] and we'll pursue MOScholars vendor approval — and let you know the moment it lands.

    Meanwhile, every plan is open to you

    The same curriculum is available out of pocket — $39/month or $250/year — with our 30-day money-back guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Missouri MOScholars funds for dance classes?

Often yes — as curriculum, not classes. YouDance is a structured online dance curriculum (educational software) with sequenced lessons, graded quizzes, and progress records, which is the category education funding programs typically treat as an eligible expense — distinct from recreational dance classes. Classification varies by program and by award, so verify with your program administrator before purchasing.

We’re part of a homeschool charter — can we use our charter funds?

Often, yes. Homeschool charters keep their own vendor lists, and most can order YouDance for you, reimburse it, or add us as a vendor when a family requests it. Ask your charter teacher (ES), and point your charter at [email protected] — we're happy to complete any charter's vendor paperwork.

Is YouDance an approved MOScholars vendor?

Not yet. Ask your program administrator whether YouDance qualifies for your award, and tell us you want it — vendor applications are driven by family demand.

What should I ask my program administrator?

Whether a structured online dance curriculum (educational software with lessons, graded quizzes, and progress records) qualifies under your award’s eligible-expense categories, and — if you’d pay out of pocket — whether reimbursement with an itemized receipt is allowed.

What does YouDance cost without program funds?

$39/month, $250/year, or a one-time lifetime option — every plan covers your whole family and carries our 30-day money-back guarantee. See the pricing page for details.

What exactly is YouDance?

A structured instructional dance curriculum: 22 structured courses and 215+ weeks of lessons across ballet, hip hop, contemporary, jazz, and clogging, with graded quizzes and progress records for every student, ages 5–17.

Homeschool requirements vary by state. Parents determine and assign credit in accordance with their local regulations. YouDance provides structured curriculum and documentation tools suitable for physical education or fine arts credit documentation. Program rules, award amounts, and eligible-expense categories change often and vary by family — always confirm with your program administrator (or tax preparer) before purchasing. Details on this page were last confirmed June 2026.
