Secular private schools in Dallas/Fort Worth

[iloveaidan&finley]

Can anyone make suggestions on non-religious private schools (or religious schools that are tolerant of all faiths or no faith) in the Tarrant County area?  We have a super limited budget and would need a place that offered some sort of financial aid.  We are also open to part-time schools for homeschooled children.  We're struggling to find a good fit, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Look into Fort Worth Academy of Fine Arts. I went there and it was truly an amazing experience. It still teaches the regular curriculum and its actually good curriculum or better than public school. Basically college prep type work. Really got me motivated to go to college, and I cam from a lower class family so FWAFA (as we called it) turned me into the person I am today. I also went there on a scholarship, so Im pretty sure they still have some sort of financial aid. Even when my family was going through income fluctuation, the administrators worked well with us and were always friendly. I believe they were very affordable (when I went there) even without the scholarship.

I also learned dance, art, theatre, and choir, among others that were offered (like instrumental, there was a gymnastics class I believe, etc.) And if you have a son or something that is not interested in dance, they do offer p.e. classes, though they do not have sports as far as I know. (When I went there they did have archery and running club though, so Im pretty sure they have expanded for more options.) I believe that they are still grades 3-12 although if you have younger kids I believe they opened a sister school called TESA or Texas Elementary Schools for Arts or of the arts or something. Anyway, I highly recommend!

Oh it is a charter school, but if you know anything about those type of schools it is very similar to private without the cost or affiliation. and this was voted #1 Charter school in america when I went there.
