PEP Scholarship Florida: 5 Smart Ways to Maximize It with AHSA
The PEP Scholarship Florida is helping families across the state take control of their child’s learning by offering a flexible and fully funded education path. Through Step Up for Students, eligible students receive up to $8,000 per year in an Education Savings Account (ESA) to pay for curriculum, instruction, tutoring, certifications, and even dual enrollment.
At American High School Academy (AHSA), we help students and families maximize their PEP Scholarship Florida through a proven combination of accredited academics, STEM and aviation programs, and career-focused learning—online, in-person, or both.
