Funding fit at Restoration Academy

Does Restoration Academy accept the CHOOSE Act ESA?

Yes. Restoration 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 Restoration Academy?

The federal Private School Survey (2023-24) reports 371 students and 35 full-time-equivalent teachers in grades K-12. Association memberships it reported: Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI); State/regional independent school association (e.g., ISAS).

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