As of October 9, 2026, Chrysalis School does not appear in the Texas TEFA participating-school finder. Schools can apply at any time if they meet the accreditation and two-year operating requirements. If you are considering this school, ask whether it has applied. You can also look at school-based aid, the federal scholarship tax credit that starts in January 2027, and the participating schools nearby listed below.

Christian and church-affiliated schools often offer member rates, sponsorships and sibling discounts, and the state's guidelines require those discounts to continue for TEFA families. Church-run schools may also qualify for the Edu Fund partner scholarship, which has no income cap.
