SPECIAL NEEDS SCHOLARSHIP
AAA Income based Scholarships:
A Unique Education for a Unique Child
Children with unique abilities may have different needs when it comes to their education. And we believe they deserve an opportunity to thrive and learn in an environment that will best support their success.
The Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities (FES-UA) enables families to personalize the education of their students by directing funds to where they’re needed most. The funds can be used for a combination of programs and approved expenses including therapists, specialists, curriculum, private school, a college savings account and more
Income-Based Scholarships (FTC & FES-EO):
AAA administers two state-approved Florida income-based scholarship programs:
-
The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship (“FTC”)
-
The Family Empowerment Scholarship for Educational Options (“FES-EO”). The same application is used to apply for both scholarships. If a student is found eligible for both scholarships, AAA will grant them an FTC Scholarship.
