A plain-language how-to for Utah Fits All and Odyssey. Written for parents, not for the program.
This is an independent, plain-language how-to for families using the Utah Fits All (UFA) scholarship through Odyssey. It is not published by, reviewed by, or affiliated with Odyssey, Utah Fits All, or the Utah State Board of Education. Where it describes a rule or a process, it is describing what Odyssey's own help center says at the time we checked — not what we think the rule should be.
A companion project, Handbook Watch, polls Odyssey's help center hourly and keeps a dated changelog for every article. Instead of linking a guide's claims straight to support.withodyssey.com, we link to that article's tracked copy, and we record the exact text we verified a claim against. The Sources page compares that recorded text to the live article on every visit and flags anything that's moved since — so a policy change shows up as "may need a re-read" instead of silently going out of date.
It's not legal or tax advice, and it's not a guarantee that any specific purchase will be approved — every reimbursement is reviewed individually by Odyssey. It's a starting point for understanding the process, written the way we'd explain it to another homeschool family.
