Western Christian Academy, Dunedin: Scholarship Status & Funding

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.

Does Western Christian Academy accept the Florida Private School Scholarship?

Not as of October 28, 2026: the state file does not flag Western Christian Academy for the FTC/FES-EO Private School Scholarship. A school can join by registering with a scholarship funding organization, so ask the admissions office whether it plans to, and whether any FES-UA or PEP payment is possible for its programs.

VPK?

Reports pre-K students; ask whether it is a VPK provider

The school reports pre-K students. Ask whether it is a VPK provider, which would make the four-year-old year free, and whether it takes School Readiness for extended care.

Christian schools commonly offer church-member pricing, sibling discounts or sponsorship funds; the Edu Fund partner scholarship is available at some participating church and community schools.
