Funding fit at Children for Christ Academy
Does Children for Christ Academy accept the Georgia Promise Scholarship?
Yes. Children for Christ Academy is on the Georgia Education Savings Authority's 2026-27 participating school list, approved as of April 23, 2026, so a student who qualifies for the Promise Scholarship can direct up to $6,500 a year to it.
The state records its accreditation as GAC (accredited). A participating school may enroll Promise students only in the grades its accreditation covers, so confirm your child's grade with the admissions office.
Does Children for Christ Academy take the Georgia Special Needs Scholarship (GSNS)?
Not for 2026-27. Children for Christ Academy isn't on GaDOE's authorized participating list for the Special Needs Scholarship, so a GSNS award can't be used here this year.
There are 153 authorized schools in our directory; the special education hub lists those built around learning differences.
What does the record say about Children for Christ Academy?
The federal record describes Children for Christ Academy as a Christian (non-denominational) school serving grades PK-4: 32 students in the federal survey (2021-22); 4 full-time-equivalent teachers, about 8 students per teacher; coeducational.
Can a four-year-old attend Children for Christ Academy through Georgia Pre-K?
Possibly. The school reports pre-K students, and Georgia's lottery-funded Pre-K is free at participating private providers, but the federal record doesn't say whether this school holds a Pre-K contract. Ask, and ask whether the class continues into kindergarten here.
