Jewish, Islamic & Other Faith Schools · Kenwood, Blue Ash, Montgomery & Sharonville

Skyward Academy

Faith-based school for grades 4-12 in Kenwood, Blue Ash, Montgomery & Sharonville. Not on Ohio’s chartered list. The funding fit, the state record and what to ask are below.

About these records. Each school row joins the federal Private School Survey (NCES 2023-24, or 2021-22 when a school skipped the latest round) to Ohio's OEDS directory of chartered nonpublic schools and DEW's 2026-27 non-chartered list, both pulled October 28, 2026. A "chartered" school is the kind that can enroll EdChoice students; schools opt in to scholarship students separately, so confirm with the admissions office. Neither agency collects tuition.

Skyward Academy is on the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce's 2026-27 list of nonchartered nonpublic schools, schools that operate without a state charter for religious reasons. EdChoice students do not enroll at non-chartered schools, so families here rely on the school's pricing and aid and on any private scholarship fund that supports it.

This is a special-education or therapeutic program, by the federal survey's code or through the organization that runs it. Families here typically pay with a disability scholarship: Jon Peterson, which ranges from $10,045 to $34,000 for 2026-27 by ETR category, or the $34,000 Autism Scholarship. Confirm the school is registered with DEW for the one your child would use.

Jewish, Islamic and other faith schools are treated exactly like any other chartered school under Ohio's programs; community and congregational funds often add tuition help too.
