★ BUILT FOR SC ESTF
• Four quarterly deposits (on or before July 31, Sept 30, Dec 31 and Feb 28), the next deposit and what has arrived
• Carried over column, because unused ESTF money rolls over when you renew
• Per-item limit check: computer $1,000, tablet $1,000, monitor or printer $300
• Yearly limit checks for each child: transportation $3,000 and uniforms $500
• Testing reminders: assessment plan due Sept 1, scores due June 15
• Works for private school tuition and for learning at home with tutors, courses and curriculum
