Holy Family Cristo Rey Catholic High School (Birmingham, AL): CHOOSE Act Status & Funding

Where this comes from. School details are from the NCES Private School Survey (2023-24, or 2021-22 where a school skipped the latest round). CHOOSE Act status is from the Alabama Department of Revenue participating-school list dated October 23, 2026, matched by name and city.

Does Holy Family Cristo Rey Catholic High School accept the CHOOSE Act ESA?

Yes. Holy Family Cristo Rey Catholic High School is on the Alabama Department of Revenue's CHOOSE Act participating-school list dated October 23, 2026, so a participating student's $7,000 ESA can pay its tuition and approved fees through ClassWallet.

The award is the same for every grade from K5 through 12; for 2027-28 there is no household income test, though priority groups are served first if money runs short.

What does the federal record say about Holy Family Cristo Rey Catholic High School?

The federal Private School Survey (2023-24) reports 154 students and 17 full-time-equivalent teachers in grades 9-12. The Diocese of Birmingham lists the Alabama Opportunity Scholarship Fund (AOSF) as an Accountability Act SGO serving this school.

Membership in an association is not the same as accreditation; ALDOR decides accreditation status for the CHOOSE Act.

How do families usually pay at Holy Family Cristo Rey Catholic High School?

As a Catholic school in the Diocese of Birmingham, it falls under the diocese's statement that all of its schools are approved CHOOSE Act participants. Some diocesan schools also partner with SGOs; ask which one, because an SGO award replaces the ESA rather than adding to it.
