High Schools (Grades 9-12) in Frayser & Raleigh
3 high schools (grades 9-12) in Frayser & Raleigh: 1 registered for EFS and 1 approved for the ESA. North Memphis neighborhoods where a handful of Christian academies, a new early-grades academy and a Cognia-accredited upper school serve families largely zoned to MSCS.
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: EFS pays the same amount in grade 12 as in kindergarten, so high school families usually pair it with school aid, MOST or the Dual Enrollment Grant. Mostly zoned to Memphis-Shelby County Schools, so income-eligible students can usually use the ESA.
