For north Louisiana schools, churches and providers

Families reach this site holding an award and needing three things from you: a tuition figure, a fee figure, and whether you have a seat. If you are a tutor or therapist, they need to know you are registered.

Approved schools

Claim your listing

5 approved schools here enroll 400 or more students and the largest are at or near capacity. Families cannot tell from the outside who has room. Post tuition, fees, aid and open grades, and we send you families who already hold funding.

Churches & ministries

Start a school

8 of the 27 approved schools here report under 150 K-12 students, and 6 are newly approved with no enrollment reported yet. A church with classrooms is not starting behind in this market, and the classical model is the one most new schools here use.

Tutors & therapists

Register as a provider

The marketplace side of the account is the biggest unserved demand in north Louisiana. If you tutor, evaluate or provide therapy and you are not registered in Odyssey, families cannot pay you from an account. What families are looking for →

Getting a new school approved

  1. Decide the model: full-time school, two-day hybrid, or marketplace provider only. The third is much faster and is how several programs here start.
  2. Apply to BESE for nonpublic approval through the Louisiana Department of Education, which is an annual approval, and meet the Brumfield v. Dodd nondiscrimination requirement.
  3. Register in Odyssey and accept the attestations covering approved uses, safety, testing and financial transparency.
  4. Price deliberately against the $5,243 and $7,626 awards. In this market a school that lands under the award can tell a family their balance is zero, which is a sentence no Shreveport school can say about a $12,000 tuition.
  5. Expect to explain the quarterly deposit schedule to parents, and set your billing cycle to match it.

No listing fee during the dev phase. Partner relationships are labeled on every page where they appear, and we do not describe a school or a curriculum as a featured partner unless it is one.
