Saint Andrew Catholic School

Does Saint Andrew Catholic School accept the Florida scholarship in Orange County?

Yes. On October 28, 2026, the Florida Department of Education directory carries Saint Andrew Catholic School 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.

Saint Andrew Catholic School carries the state's Unique Abilities (FES-UA) participant flag. 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.

Catholic schools commonly layer the state award over parishioner tuition and their own financial aid, and some in the Orlando area quote one rate for Catholic households and another for everyone else.

In the 2026 state survey the school counted 349 students; that ranks Saint Andrew Catholic School 4th by size among the 43 schools in Pine Hills, Rosemont & Lockhart that gave an enrollment figure. Accreditation on file with the state (1): FCCAP.
