Funding fit for St. Mary's Christian Academy
Does St. Mary's Christian Academy take the NC Opportunity Scholarship?
Not for 2026-27, as far as the state table shows. We did not find St. Mary's Christian Academy on NCSEAA's Direct Payment list when we downloaded it on October 30, 2026, so no state award can be paid to it this year. If it is your first choice, ask the school whether it is registered under another name or plans to join for 2027-28.
How big is St. Mary's Christian Academy, according to the federal survey?
The 2023-24 federal private school survey lists St. Mary's Christian Academy with 25 students, 8 full-time-equivalent teachers, roughly 3.1 students per teacher across grades PK-6. The school year is 180 days long.
How do families pay for St. Mary's Christian Academy?
St. Mary's Christian Academy lists a Religious (other) affiliation. Ask about sibling discounts and lower rates for members of the sponsoring church, and whether the school takes part in the Edu Fund partner scholarship.
Is pre-K at St. Mary's Christian Academy free?
The Wake Pre-K application places four-year-olds in NC Pre-K, Title I Pre-K or Head Start; ask the director whether a room here is part of it. Child care subsidy can also help working families pay a participating preschool.
