Funding fit for Harmon Prep School
Harmon Prep School is listed by the Florida Department of Education as a participating school in the Florida Tax Credit / Family Empowerment Scholarship (FTC/FES-EO) program. A Hillsborough family can therefore use the state award here: $8,429 per student in grades K-3; $7,837 per student in grades 4-8; $7,644 per student in grades 9-12 for the 2026-27 school year, paid quarterly to the school through EMA.
Harmon Prep School is listed as a Unique Abilities (FES-UA) participant. It reports serving 5 disability categories (listed below). A student with a qualifying diagnosis or IEP can use FES-UA, which averages about $10,000 and can pay for therapies and tutoring as well as tuition.
Because the school serves pre-K, ask whether it is a Florida VPK provider — the 4-year-old year is free for every Florida child — and whether it accepts School Readiness child care assistance. A child who starts in VPK here can continue into kindergarten on the state scholarship without changing schools.
Independent schools set their own need-based aid; the state scholarship applies on the same terms as at any religious school.
