Do Christian schools in Pinellas take the scholarship?
Most do; the flag is shown on every listing, and the county award is identical at a Christian school and a secular one.
In 2026-27 that is $8,643 for K-3, $8,059 for 4-8 and $7,868 for 9-12.
What else do church schools offer?
Member pricing, sibling discounts and congregation sponsorship funds are common; ask each school what it offers and how to apply.
Some participating church and community schools also offer the Edu Fund partner scholarship.
How do I compare schools by denomination?
The directory tags each school's denomination as filed with the state, and the table can be filtered by community or name.
Non-denominational schools are the largest group in Pinellas, followed by Baptist and Lutheran schools.
