Funding fit at Islamic Academy of Alabama
Does Islamic Academy of Alabama accept the CHOOSE Act ESA?
Yes. Islamic Academy of Alabama 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 Islamic Academy of Alabama?
The federal Private School Survey (2023-24) reports 214 students and 21 full-time-equivalent teachers in grades PK-12. Association memberships it reported: Islamic School League of America.
Membership in an association is not the same as accreditation; ALDOR decides accreditation status for the CHOOSE Act.
How do families usually pay at Islamic Academy of Alabama?
Faith tradition has no bearing on CHOOSE Act eligibility; ask the school about community-funded tuition help after the ESA. The school enrolls pre-K children; the ESA starts at K5, so ask whether it hosts a First Class Pre-K classroom or accepts DHR child care subsidies.
