Year 0: decide the model
A two- or three-day hybrid using AmFaith as the academic core, or a five-day microschool. Use existing classrooms, fellowship halls and playgrounds.
Years 1-2: build the record
TEFA requires two school years of operation and recognized accreditation. During this period families pay tuition, homeschool participants can use the $2,000 account where the program is an approved vendor, and our partner fund helps close gaps.
Year 3: join TEFA
Apply as a participating private school on the rolling application, give the annual norm-referenced test in grades 3-12, and receive $10,474 per accepted student.
Staffing
Lead educators need a relevant credential under the Comptroller's policy and a fingerprint background check.
