Resolute Academy

Independent & Nonreligious School for grades 9-12 in Dallas. In the TEFA finder. Read on for the funding that applies, what state and federal records say, and the questions worth asking.

Where this comes from. Whether a school takes TEFA comes from the Texas Education Freedom Accounts participating-school finder (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), which we checked on October 12, 2026. Enrollment, grades and religious affiliation come from the NCES Private School Survey (U.S. Department of Education). Neither source publishes tuition, so confirm current tuition and fees with the school directly.

Resolute Academy was listed as a participating school in the state's TEFA finder on October 12, 2026. That means a student with an Education Freedom Account can put the 2026-27 award of $10,474 toward tuition here. The state pays the school directly through Odyssey: a quarter on July 1, another quarter on October 1, and the remaining half on February 1.

An independent school sets its own aid policy. It may factor a TEFA award into a need-based aid decision, but it can't charge a TEFA family a different tuition from everyone else.

What to ask the school

  1. Will you be in TEFA for 2027-28, and how do you handle a family that's awarded after the school year starts?
  2. Which of your fees (registration, books, technology, uniforms, lunch) can be billed to the account?
  3. What need-based aid, sibling rate or church or parish pricing applies to the balance?
  4. Do you serve students with an IEP or a learning difference, and what support is included in tuition?
  5. Which dual-credit partners do you use, and can those course fees come from the account?
