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: Pre-K sits outside EFS and the ESA, which begin at kindergarten. MSCS Pre-K, Voluntary Pre-K and Smart Steps are the tools for these years. Split between MSCS and a municipal district, so ESA eligibility depends on the exact address.
