Independent & Secular Schools in South & East Clearwater (Belcher, Bayside, Feather Sound)

8 independent & secular schools in South & East Clearwater (Belcher, Bayside, Feather Sound) appear in the state file; 6 are flagged for the Private School Scholarship ($8,643 K-3 · $8,059 4-8 · $7,868 9-12 in 2026-27). The commercial spine around U.S. 19, Belcher Road and Ulmerton Road out to the Bayside Bridge and Feather Sound.

From the state record. School facts here come from the Pinellas district records in the Florida DOE private school directory, pulled October 28, 2026. Program columns show whether the state listed the school for FTC/FES-EO, FES-UA and PEP on that date. Florida does not collect tuition, so confirm prices with each school.

How does the funding work here?

Religious affiliation is not a condition of the Florida scholarship. A secular school with the state flag receives exactly the same Pinellas award a church school does.
