Terms of use

Last updated October 11, 2026

By using this site you agree to these terms. They are short and written in plain language.

1. What this site is

The ESTF Provider Finder is a free information tool run by Palmetto NavigatEd, a project of the Palmetto Promise Institute. It is not a government website. Palmetto NavigatEd is not affiliated with, operated by, or endorsed by the South Carolina Department of Education, ClassWallet or FACTS.

2. Where the information comes from

Approved providers come from the list published by the Department of Education, and public charter schools from our own list. We organise that information; we do not verify it. It may be out of date, incomplete or wrong. The Department’s list is always the authority on who is approved.

Descriptions were written by the providers themselves. On the Spanish pages they are automatic translations, which may contain errors; the original English is what the provider submitted.

3. A listing is not a recommendation

Being listed here is not a recommendation or an endorsement. We make no guarantee about any provider’s quality, safety, licensing, credentials, availability or prices. Before you enrol or pay, confirm the details with the provider directly and do your own checks, including background and credential checks where they apply.

4. Eligibility and funds

Only the Department of Education decides who is eligible for ESTF and what the funds can be spent on. Nothing on this site guarantees that a provider or an expense is covered. Check the official FAQ or ask the Department.

5. The map and distances

Locations and distances are approximate. Some are deliberately imprecise to protect a provider’s home. Do not use this map for directions.

6. Other people’s websites

Links to provider websites and other sites are provided for convenience. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, practices or availability.

7. Acceptable use

Do not use this site to send unsolicited messages to providers, or to collect their details for that purpose. Do not present information from here as an official state list. Do not try to disrupt the site or its server.

8. No warranty

The site and its information are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, neither Palmetto NavigatEd, nor the Palmetto Promise Institute, nor anyone who builds or hosts the site, including its developer, keresai.com, is liable for any loss or damage arising from using this site, relying on its information, or dealing with any provider. Any arrangement with a provider is solely between you and that provider.

10. Corrections and removal

If something is wrong, or you are a provider and would rather not be listed, contact Palmetto NavigatEd. Errors in the state’s own list can only be corrected by the Department of Education.

11. Names and trademarks

Provider names, descriptions and trademarks belong to their respective owners.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they last changed. See also the privacy page.
