Independent & Secular Schools in West & Central St. Petersburg (Tyrone, Azalea, Disston Heights)

7 independent & secular schools in West & Central St. Petersburg (Tyrone, Azalea, Disston Heights) appear in the state file; 5 are flagged for the Private School Scholarship ($8,643 K-3 · $8,059 4-8 · $7,868 9-12 in 2026-27). Neighborhoods along Tyrone Boulevard, 38th Avenue and the Jungle Prada area, home to a cathedral school, a Catholic high school and a naval-heritage academy on Boca Ciega Bay.

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.
