Raising Knowledge Academy

Does Raising Knowledge Academy accept the Florida scholarship in Orange County?

Yes. On October 28, 2026, the Florida Department of Education directory carries Raising Knowledge 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; $7,639 per student in grades 9-12 for 2026-27, delivered to the school each quarter by way of EMA.

Raising Knowledge Academy carries the state's Unique Abilities (FES-UA) participant flag. The school told the state it serves 9 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. It also holds the state's PEP flag, which means a household with a Personalized Education Program account can pay for a part-week schedule here.

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.

Christian schools tied to a congregation frequently discount tuition for members and siblings or line up sponsors, and some church-run campuses also take part in the Edu Fund Partner Scholarship.

In the 2025 state survey the school counted 94 students; that ranks Raising Knowledge Academy 8th by size among the 24 schools in Dr. Phillips & Hunter's Creek that gave an enrollment figure.
