Indiana ESA at a glance (2026)
iTeachWise gives Indiana families AI-powered lesson planning, standards-aligned materials, differentiated instruction, IEP-aligned supports, and assessments — whether you teach a single child at home or run a small microschool.
Unlike general AI lesson tools, iTeachWise is built for homeschool families and special education: every lesson, worksheet, and assessment is IEP-aligned and standards-aligned. As a convenience, plan purchases include purchase records formatted for scholarship documentation (see the sample record) — confirm what your program covers with your state's program.

Documentation support for Indiana families
Indiana Treasurer's office runs the ESA through Merit pages and audits IEP-aligned spending. iTeachWise is not an approved or listed vendor in Indiana's ESA program; it tags every lesson with the matching IEP goal, and every purchase generates an itemized, timestamped purchase record formatted for scholarship documentation. Whether a purchase is reimbursed is determined entirely by the program — confirm with your program administrator before purchasing.
Vendor status: iTeachWise is not an approved or listed vendor in Indiana. Families should verify eligibility with their program before purchasing.
