This page serves as your central hub for TEFA updates at Bishop Louis Reicher Catholic School. We believe that parents are the primary educators of their children, and the Texas Education Freedom Account (TEFA) program helps families fulfill that role with greater freedom and support. Here you’ll find school-specific information, application support, upcoming clinic dates, and easy access to the official TEFA resources provided by the Texas Comptroller’s Office.

While Bishop Louis Reicher Catholic School does not administer the TEFA program, we are committed to walking alongside our families by helping you navigate the process and connect with reliable, up-to-date information. For complete program details, eligibility requirements, and official guidance, families should always refer to the Texas Comptroller’s TEFA website.

Great news! The TEFA application is now open.

There’s no need to rush—applications are accepted throughout the entire application window, and the timing of submission does not impact funding decisions. The TEFA program does not award funds on a first-come basis. All applications submitted within the application window are given equal consideration.

Families can submit the Texas Families online application between February 4 and March 17.
