Family Life Academy

Christian School for grades K-8 in Tucson. On 3 STO school lists. Below you'll find how the main funding paths fit, what public records show and questions worth asking on a tour.

Where this comes from. School listings were checked on October 12, 2026. Enrollment and grades come from the U.S. Department of Education's Private School Survey (NCES, 2023-24 and 2021-22); STO listings come from the published school lists of Arizona School Tuition Organizations. CTSO's list was not part of our match. No public source shows tuition or which schools take ESA payments, so confirm both with the school.

How the funding fits

Every Arizona student from kindergarten through 12th grade can open an Empowerment Scholarship Account. The latest ADE chart, labeled 2025-26 (ADE estimate; the 2026-27 chart isn't posted yet), puts the range for the grades Family Life Academy serves at $4,718–$6,205 (K) and $7,105–$10,540 (grades 1-12); where a student lands depends on grade and the public school they would otherwise attend. A qualified private school is paid from the account once it is set up as a ClassWallet vendor, and because the state keeps no list of those schools, ask Family Life Academy directly before you count on it.

Takes STO scholarships from: ACSTO, IBE, School Choice Arizona (per each STO's published school list, Oct 2026). Each STO decides its own awards, so apply separately to each one and expect no guarantee. Keep in mind that STO aid is the alternative to the ESA: a parent who signs an ESA contract agrees not to take an STO scholarship for that child in the same year.

Many Tucson church schools offer a member or congregation rate and see families supported by ACSTO, IBE and other STOs, so ask how the school combines its discounts with ESA or STO funding.

From the public records

According to the federal Private School Survey (2023-24), the school had 110 students, 8.4 full-time-equivalent teachers, a 13.1:1 student-teacher ratio and grades K-8, with a Christian (no specific denomination) religious orientation.

Memberships/accreditation listed by: ACSI. These come from the associations' public directories. A membership listing is not always the same as accreditation, so ask Family Life Academy for its current status.

Questions for your visit

  1. Is Family Life Academy set up as a ClassWallet vendor so ESA tuition can be paid directly?
  2. What does tuition cost for my child's grade, and which required fees can the ESA cover?
  3. Which STOs do your families apply to, including CTSO or IBE, and what are their dates?
  4. Do you offer member, parish, sibling or need-based discounts on the remaining balance?
