Texas is set to create a statewide private school voucher program in the 2026-27 school year. The tool in this story is designed to answer any questions you have about the new program. Responses are based solely on published reporting by Tribune journalists.
This tool is powered by experimental Generative AI; it cannot answer every question perfectly. If the bot can't answer your question, it will notify our reporters. They might write a story based on what you ask — a February story on how the proposed voucher system would impact the Teacher Retirement System was inspired by a question in this tool. New stories about vouchers are added to the bot every time we write one.
