St. Benedicts Episcopal School

Funding fit at St. Benedicts Episcopal School

Does St. Benedicts Episcopal School accept the Georgia Promise Scholarship?

Yes. St. Benedicts Episcopal School 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 SAIS (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 St. Benedicts Episcopal School take the Georgia Special Needs Scholarship (GSNS)?

Not for 2026-27. St. Benedicts Episcopal School 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 St. Benedicts Episcopal School?

The federal record describes St. Benedicts Episcopal School as an Episcopal school serving grades PK-8: 440 students in the federal survey (2023-24); 84 full-time-equivalent teachers, about 5 students per teacher; coeducational.

Can a four-year-old attend St. Benedicts Episcopal School 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.
