Bayaan Academy

Islamic & Other Faith School serving grades PK-12 in League City (League City, Friendswood & Galveston County). Participates in TEFA. Funding fit, public records and questions to ask are below.

Verified against two public records. TEFA participation is checked against the Texas Education Freedom Accounts participating-school finder (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), retrieved October 9, 2026. Enrollment, teachers, religious orientation and associations come from the NCES Private School Survey (U.S. Department of Education) (2023-24, or 2021-22 where noted). Tuition is not reported to either — confirm it with the school.

TEFA private-school award, 2026-27 — the same at every grade served here (PK-12)
$15,961 to $17,095

$10,474
TEFA pre-K for eligible 3- and 4-year-olds (income, English learner, military and similar criteria)

Bayaan Academy appears in the Texas Comptroller's TEFA participating-school finder (checked October 9, 2026). A Houston-area student who holds a Texas Education Freedom Account can use it here. For 2026-27 that is $10,474 per student, deposited 25% on July 1, 25% on October 1 and 50% on February 1, and paid to the school through the Odyssey platform. To participate, a school must be accredited by a TEPSAC-recognized organization or TEA, have operated at least two school years, and give an annual norm-referenced test in grades 3-12.

The school reports special education services or a learning-differences focus. A TEFA student with an IEP on file can receive more than the standard award. For a Clear Creek ISD resident, that is roughly $15,961 to $17,095 for regular-campus IEP settings, capped at $30,000.

The school also serves pre-K. TEFA pays the full award for eligible 3- and 4-year-olds whose families meet the free public pre-K criteria (income, English learner, military, foster care and similar). Kindergarten eligibility is broader, so a child can stay at the same school.

Faith-based schools of every tradition can participate in TEFA on the same terms. Ask about community tuition assistance.

Questions to ask this school

  1. Do you participate in TEFA, and are you confirming enrollments for families awarded in the next cycle?

  3. Which discounts do you offer (sibling, church member, employee), and what need-based aid is available for the balance?
  4. Will you accept the TEFA payment schedule (25% July, 25% October, 50% February), or do you need a deposit from personal funds?
