Does Grace Classical Academy accept the Florida Private School Scholarship?
Yes. On Florida's register, Grace Classical Academy is flagged for the Private School Scholarship (FTC/FES-EO), meaning a Lee student's award can be spent here: $8,779 for grades K-3; $8,193 for grades 4-8 for 2026-27, released in four quarterly payments once you approve each enrollment in EMA.
Can a Unique Abilities (FES-UA) student use the account at Grace Classical Academy?
The school is also flagged for the Unique Abilities Scholarship (FES-UA). For a Lee child whose condition or IEP qualifies, that means a parent-run account worth $11,345 at the base level for grades K-3 (more at a higher matrix level), which can also cover outside therapy, tutoring and a computer every two years.
Christian schools in Lee often keep tuition near the state award and add member pricing or sibling discounts; ask whether the school takes part in the Edu Fund partner scholarship.
