South Carolina ESTF
Yes, your South Carolina ESTF funds work at Bookroo.
South Carolina's Education Scholarship Trust Fund (ESTF) can be used for Bookroo's award-winning children's book subscriptions for Kindergarten through 7th grade. Pay straight from your student's scholarship account through ClassWallet — nothing out of pocket.
The ESTF at a glance
Books have their own category
Reading Books is an approved ESTF expense category — no dollar cap, no subject-area list.
Managed in ClassWallet
Every purchase goes through the platform — your student's account pays Bookroo directly.
Unused funds roll over
Funds carry forward while your student stays in the program, so a full-year plan risks nothing.
Invoices in minutes
Itemized per book, with parent and student names and service dates — everything South Carolina asks for, generated right on this page.
How it works
How to buy Bookroo with your ESTF scholarship in ClassWallet
South Carolina doesn't reimburse families — every purchase goes through ClassWallet — so start here instead of at our checkout. It takes a few minutes, and nothing is charged to you.
Nothing out of pocket
Pay through ClassWallet
1
Pick a club or collection and add it to your cart — most ClassWallet families ask for the full year.
2
Generate the itemized invoice for your cart below. Nothing is charged to you — don't check out on your own card, since South Carolina doesn't reimburse.
3
In ClassWallet, open Pay Vendor, search for Bookroo, upload the invoice, and choose the Reading Books category.
4
Submit. ClassWallet pays Bookroo directly, and your books start shipping as soon as the payment arrives.
Already on our invoices
What South Carolina checks on the invoice
1
The expense category: Reading Books — its own category, separate from Textbooks and its subject-area list.
2
Both names and dates: the parent's and student's names, the invoice date, and the dates the subscription covers. Ours carries all of it.
3
Reasonable pricing: the Department can reject an invoice that isn't “within reason,” so ours itemizes every book instead of showing one lump sum.

Buying for more than one child? Each student has their own scholarship — name each child on their items and the tool breaks the order out per student. Something unusual? The full invoice tool handles every case, or email support@bookroo.com. New to the platform? See our ClassWallet guide.
What your scholarship can buy
Every club delivers new hardcover books each month, matched to your child's stage of reading. And unlike a workbook, none of it gets used up.
01
Pick by grade
Picture books for Kindergarten and 1st grade, junior chapter books for 1st through 5th, and middle grade novels for 3rd through 7th — and you know your reader better than any chart.
02
Ask for the full year
One prepaid term, one invoice, one trip through approval — nothing recurring. Unused ESTF funds roll over while your student stays in the program, so a full year risks nothing.
03
Every reader has their own scholarship
South Carolina awards the ESTF per student, so a second reader isn't a second line in the same budget. Name each child on their items and the invoice tool breaks everything out per student.

Why Bookroo
We read every book before it goes in a box.
Not a summary, not a review — the actual book.
We're looking for stories with heart and imagination, the kind kids ask to read again and parents don't dread at bedtime. Natural diversity, yes. Titles that prioritize an agenda over storytelling, no. Our goal has never been complicated: send books kids love and parents trust.
That's the part nobody can outsource. Plenty of places will ship you books. Knowing what's inside them, and deciding a nine-year-old should read this one and not that one, is the actual work — and it's why families stay with us for years rather than months.
Every book is hardcover, and every book is part of a custom collection with uniform height and coordinated spines — so what accumulates on your shelf looks like a library, not a pile.
And none of it gets used up. A workbook gets filled in; a book gets read again, handed to a younger sibling, and is still on the shelf years from now.

The scholarship rolls over. Reading months don't — books that arrive in September get read all year; books that arrive in April get read for two months.
