Sunflower Christian Academy

Does Sunflower Christian Academy accept the Florida Private School Scholarship?

No. In the directory pulled October 28, 2026, Sunflower Christian Academy is absent from the FTC/FES-EO participant list.

A private school opts in by registering with Step Up For Students. If you like this school, ask the office whether it intends to join, or whether PEP or FES-UA money could pay for any part of what it offers.

It told the state it serves 13 disability categories; they are listed below. A Palm Beach County child with a qualifying diagnosis or IEP can draw $11,054, $10,452 or $10,255 under FES-UA, depending on grade, and the account reaches therapies and tutoring as well as tuition.

This school takes pre-K children, so ask if it is an approved VPK provider (the year before kindergarten is free for any Florida four-year-old) and whether it accepts School Readiness certificates from the Early Learning Coalition of Palm Beach County.
