How families pay here
Lake Travis Christian Academy: An Acton Academy was listed in the Texas Comptroller's TEFA finder when we checked on October 12, 2026, so a student with an Education Freedom Account can use it here. For 2026-27 the account sends $10,474 per student, deposited in three parts: 25% on July 1, 25% on October 1 and the final 50% on February 1.
This school also enrolls pre-K children. TEFA funds 3- and 4-year-olds who meet a state free pre-K criterion, such as qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, limited English, or a parent who teaches in a Texas public school. Kindergarten has no such test, so a child can continue here on the full award.
Church-related schools frequently price by congregation membership and number of children, and the state requires those rates to keep applying when a family pays with TEFA. A church-run school may also be eligible for the Edu Fund partner scholarship, which has no income limit.
