How the money fits
When we checked the state's finder on October 12, 2026, Azle Christian School was listed as a TEFA participating school. That means a student with a funded account can put the $10,474 award toward tuition and required fees here. Odyssey releases each year's money in three parts: a quarter on July 1, a quarter on October 1 and the remaining half on February 1.
Many Tarrant County Christian schools price by church membership or offer sibling and ministry discounts, and the state's guidelines keep those in force for TEFA families. Church-run schools may also be eligible for the Edu Fund partner scholarship, which has no income limit.
