Frequently asked questions
What makes a private Christian school TEFA-accredited?
Accreditation by a TEPSAC-recognized agency, at least two years of operation, and a Texas business location are what qualify a school for the higher TEFA tier. Ask the school directly rather than assuming from its name or reputation.
Can homeschoolers attend a private Christian school part-time?
Some Houston private Christian schools offer part-time, hybrid, or "dual enrollment" options for homeschool families, though this varies a lot by school. Confirm directly, since many are full-time only.
How much can TEFA pay toward private Christian school tuition?
Up to $10,474 a year for an accredited private school, or up to $30,000 for a student with a disability at an accredited school, based on current published amounts. Confirm current figures with the school and the Comptroller's office, since program details can change.
