Verified against two public records. TEFA participation is checked against the Texas Education Freedom Accounts participating-school finder (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), retrieved October 9, 2026.

Tuition is not reported to either — confirm it with the school.

Crossbar Academy appears in the Texas Comptroller's TEFA participating-school finder (checked October 9, 2026). A Houston-area student who holds a Texas Education Freedom Account can use it here. For 2026-27 that is $10,474 per student, deposited 25% on July 1, 25% on October 1 and 50% on February 1, and paid to the school through the Odyssey platform. To participate, a school must be accredited by a TEPSAC-recognized organization or TEA, have operated at least two school years, and give an annual norm-referenced test in grades 3-12.

The school reports special education services or a learning-differences focus. A TEFA student with an IEP on file can receive more than the standard award. For a Tomball ISD resident, that is roughly $16,038 to $17,188 for regular-campus IEP settings, capped at $30,000.

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.

Questions to ask this school

  1. Do you participate in TEFA, and are you confirming enrollments for families awarded in the next cycle?
  2. What is tuition for my child's grade, and which fees (registration, books, technology, uniforms, lunch) can be paid from the TEFA account?
  3. Which discounts do you offer (sibling, church member, employee), and what need-based aid is available for the balance?
  4. Will you accept the TEFA payment schedule (25% July, 25% October, 50% February), or do you need a deposit from personal funds?
  5. Which IEP settings and diagnoses do you have room for right now? Do you bill on-campus therapies as school fees?
  6. For high school: which dual-credit partners do you use, and can those course fees come from the account?
