Future Stars Academy carries the state's Unique Abilities (FES-UA) participant flag. The school told the state it serves 5 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.

An independent school sets its own need-based aid policy, and the state scholarship works exactly as it does at a religious school.
