Funding fit for The Fletcher Academy
Does The Fletcher Academy take the NC Opportunity Scholarship?
Yes. The Fletcher Academy matched a listing on NCSEAA's 2026-27 Direct Payment table, so the Opportunity Scholarship and ESA+ can both be paid to it. A student here can receive up to $7,942 at Tier 1, $7,148 at Tier 2, $4,766 at Tier 3 or $3,574 at Tier 4, but never more than the school's required tuition and fees.
How big is The Fletcher Academy, according to the federal survey?
The 2023-24 federal private school survey lists The Fletcher Academy with 206 students, 41 full-time-equivalent teachers, roughly 5.0 students per teacher across grades 2-12. The school year is 175 days long. The school reported that 50% of recent graduates enrolled at four-year colleges.
How do families pay for The Fletcher Academy?
The Fletcher Academy lists no religious tie. Aid at an independent school comes out of the school's own budget, and many schools work it out after subtracting any state award.
Can ESA+ pay for The Fletcher Academy?
It can, if your child qualifies. The federal survey files The Fletcher Academy as a special education school, and ESA+ holds $9,000 a year or $17,000 for the five higher-award disability areas. Because the school is on the 2026-27 Direct Payment list, ESA+ pays its tuition first and any balance can go to therapy or tutoring.
Can The Fletcher Academy students take tuition-free college classes?
Eligible juniors and seniors at private schools can enroll in Career & College Promise courses, and Wake Tech is the community college closest to this school. Ask The Fletcher Academy how dual enrollment credits count toward its diploma.
