Funding fit at Maranathan Academy

Does Maranathan Academy accept the CHOOSE Act ESA?

Yes. Maranathan Academy 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 Maranathan Academy?

The federal Private School Survey (2021-22) reports 22 students and 7 full-time-equivalent teachers in grades 6-12.

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