Instead, we strengthen and support homeschool families through structured academic services delivered in a faith-centered environment.

Amarillo Christian Academy is not a private school. We operate as a Christ-centered homeschool support learning center structured around learning pods under Texas Education Code Chapter 27.

Because ACA does not operate as an accredited private school, we do not qualify under that category for TEFA participation.

The State is still finalizing how the TEFA “Marketplace” will function for vendors serving homeschool families. As additional guidance becomes available, we will evaluate whether participation as a homeschool service provider aligns with our model.

We will continue to monitor updates and communicate clearly with families as information becomes finalized.

Currently, ACA does not offer scholarships. We strive to keep our Program Rates and Fees competitive and accessible while maintaining the quality and structure of our learning pod model.
