Frequently Asked Questions

 

Do you teach the Bible at Tree of Life Tallahassee?

*Most importantly, our faith in Jesus is the center of all we do at Tree of Life Tallahassee.  We uphold the Bible and its teachings and try to instill a love for God in all we do.

What does it cost to attend Tree of Life Tallahassee?

Tree of Life Tallahassee is 100% funded by state scholarships.  

 

What are the school's operating hours?

We will be open from 7am until 6pm with the school day starting at 8am and ending at 3pm.  Aftercare is from 3pm until 6pm and is FREE to all students.

 

Do you accept scholarships and how can I find out if I qualify?

 * We accept Step up for Students scholarships.  To see if you qualify for Step Up please visit stepupforstudents.org.  Step Up has several main scholarships.  The first is an income-based scholarship (either the FES-EO or FES-FTC) and the second is the Family Empowerment Scholarship for students with unique abilities (known as the FES-UA) that is available to certain students with varying special needs.  Step Up For Students has also added the Hope Scholarship for students who have been bullied in the public school system.   

 

What if my student's scholarship is less than the tuition for the school?

Many students have scholarships that are a few hundred to a few thousand dollars less than our tuition rate.  The Lord has always provided for us, so we are able to accept the amount the scholarship offers, and not expect parents to pay the rest out of pocket.  Don't let money keep you from calling and setting up a meeting!  

I have a scholarship for my special needs child but his/her sibling doesn't qualify for a scholarship.  I want to keep them together in the same school.  Is there any help for a family like mine?

Tree of Life Tallahassee wants to see families stay together!  Step Up For Students has now adopted the "Once in always in, plus the siblings" rule.  Once your student receives an SUFS scholarship, they keep it throughout their educational career, and all siblings are now eligible.  This is GREAT NEWS!

What if my student doesn't have a scholarship?

*Those who are "private pay" (with no scholarship) can either go on a 10-month payment plan or pay in full up front for a 10% discount. Many times we are able to offer discounted rates or "in-house" scholarships for students until they can obtain a SUFS scholarship.

 

Can my high school student earn college credits while pursuing their high school diploma?  What is the cost?

*We have an articulation agreement with TCC for dual enrollment for qualified high school students.  This is an opportunity for students to earn college credit before they graduate high school.  The college classes are free to the student.   

 

What curricula do you use?

*Our core curricula is the ACE (Accelerated Christian Education) known as "paces."  We may utilize some Abeka materials and some Saxon Math.  

 

What qualifications do your teachers have?

*We have highly qualified teachers with proven track records of student success, and many of them hold exit degrees in their field (i.e., a Master's degree).
