DFW private schools that accept TEFA

All 317 participating K–12 schools in Dallas–Fort Worth, with grades, contact details, and open seats and tuition as schools confirm them.

How to read a school's seats

Each school gets one square per grade, from Pre-K to 12th. Yellow means the school has told us it has room.

Example only. Seats are dated when a school confirms them, and they expire if the school doesn't update them.

Legend:
  • Open seats
  • A few seats
  • Waitlist or full
  • Not confirmed yet

What TEFA covers

For 2026–27, TEFA gives $10,474 a year for a student at a participating private school, and up to $30,000 for a student with an IEP.

Tuition varies a lot from school to school. Put in a school's tuition to see what's left for your family to pay. Funding for 2027–28 isn't set yet: the Legislature decides it in its 2027 session.

Applying for 2027–28?

The state hasn't announced dates for 2027–28 TEFA applications, and the Legislature hasn't set 2027–28 funding yet. Last year's window ran Feb 4 to Mar 31, and private school deadlines can come sooner. Here's what we know, including what the November election means, and what you can do now.
