What it is and who needs it.
What the Choice bond actually covers
Wisconsin's Private School Choice Programs — the Milwaukee, Racine, and statewide parental choice programs run by the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) under Wis. Stat. 119.23 and 118.60 — let eligible students attend participating private schools on state-funded vouchers. The program protects those dollars with a surety bond requirement.
A participating school must provide a surety bond payable to the state equal to 25% of the total payments it expects to receive under the program that school year — unless it instead submits an anticipated budget and evidence of financial viability that DPI accepts. The bond is the alternative for schools that don't meet the financial test.
A school that chose the bond in its first year must keep filing it (generally by May 1 annually, with a statutory June 30 renewal) until it provides a standard consolidated financial audit and meets DPI's other requirements. If DPI recovers on a valid claim, the school repays the surety; it is not insurance for the school. Enter the figure on your DPI notice and we issue it at a flat 3%.
