About these records. Each listing combines the federal Private School Survey (2023-24, or 2021-22 for non-responders) with the Tennessee Department of Education's 2026-27 Non-Public Schools Directory (updated October 5, 2026), the EFS registered-school list (updated August 24, 2026) and the West Tennessee ESA list (updated September 24, 2026), all pulled October 30, 2026. Schools do not report tuition to the state, so ask the school for it.
Funding note: The split that matters is the approval category: Category I, II and III Christian schools can register for EFS, while a Category IV-only church school cannot. Split between MSCS and a municipal district, so ESA eligibility depends on the exact address.
