Yes — TEFA funds can be used for accredited online private education, including Tenney School Live, as long as the program appears on the Texas Comptroller’s approved vendor list (published when applications open in 2026).

Families choosing Tenney School Live may use TEFA funds for:

  • Full-time online school enrollment

  • Individual online courses

  • Accredited credit recovery

  • Specialized 1-to-1 instruction

  • Approved educational services (tutoring, materials, etc.)

Tenney School Live meets the typical accreditation and program requirements expected for TEFA compliance, and we will update families as soon as Odyssey releases the official approved provider directory.
