Does Fataj Transition Learning Academy accept the Florida scholarship in Orange County?
Yes. On October 28, 2026, the Florida Department of Education directory carries Fataj Transition Learning Academy as a participant in the Florida Tax Credit / Family Empowerment Scholarship (FTC/FES-EO) program, so an Orange County household can direct the state award to this school: $8,420 per student in grades K-3; $7,831 per student in grades 4-8 for 2026-27, delivered to the school each quarter by way of EMA.
Fataj Transition Learning Academy carries the state's Unique Abilities (FES-UA) participant flag. The school told the state it serves 7 disability categories, listed below. Under FES-UA's base tier, an Orange County student with a qualifying diagnosis or IEP gets $10,584 in K-3, $9,995 in 4-8 or $9,803 in 9-12, and it can fund therapy and tutoring too.
The school enrolls pre-K, so ask if it is an approved VPK provider and takes School Readiness child care help; the Early Learning Coalition of Orange County keeps that list.
An independent school sets its own need-based aid policy, and the state scholarship works exactly as it does at a religious school.
In the 2025 state survey the school counted 23 students; that ranks Fataj Transition Learning Academy 15th by size among the 26 schools in Parramore, Holden Heights & MetroWest that gave an enrollment figure.
