Livingway Christian Academy

Does Livingway Christian Academy accept the Florida scholarship, and what would a Duval family receive?

Livingway Christian Academy appears on the state's roster of schools that take the Private School Scholarship (FTC/FES-EO). Duval students can spend the award here at $8,409 for grades K-3; $7,821 for grades 4-8 this year, and the money reaches the school quarterly through EMA.

The state also lists Livingway Christian Academy as an FES-UA school. The school reports 3 disability categories, listed below. A child with a qualifying diagnosis or IEP can put FES-UA ($10,573 at matrix levels 1-3 in Duval) toward therapies and tutors on top of tuition.

The school starts at pre-K, so ask whether it provides Florida VPK for four-year-olds and whether it takes School Readiness child care assistance through the Early Learning Coalition of Duval. A child who begins here can move into kindergarten on the state scholarship without changing campuses.

Schools tied to a church frequently discount for members and siblings or run sponsorship funds, and some join the Edu Fund Partner Scholarship.

The school's latest state survey (2025) counts 51 students, and its largest grade is grade 1 with 13. Among the 17 private schools registered in Northwest Jacksonville: Moncrief, Soutel & Edgewood, it ranks 9th by reported enrollment.
