Tampa has 8 documented small schools in the Tampa Bay region — Hybrid Schools (2), Microschools (2). 3 of the 8 publish tuition and 0 record a funding program with a named source. Every figure is computed from these 8 listings alone.
This page exists because Tampa clears our three-school bar for a standalone area page; smaller towns in the Tampa Bay region are browsable from the metro page with the area filter applied — the same facet selects the same schools.

★ = featured placement. Featured never changes a tier or a fact — see how we verify.
The 8 documented schools here are Tampa Bay Community Homeschool, Apollo Academy, Lotus Learning, Fusion Academy Tampa and Tampa Day School. The full list with filters is above — each listing shows tuition state, days per week, grade band and funding with its source and check date.
3 of 8 (38%). Where tuition is unpublished, the listing shows the gap plainly with the school's phone and admissions page — and schools can claim the listing free to publish it.
None of the 8 schools in Tampa records a funding program in a source we could check. That is a documentation state, not a no — ask the school directly; the prep card on each listing carries the question.
How a school gets on this page: from a public-record source (NCES, a state list, a program provider list, or a network locator) or the school’s own published pages. Trust states describe how the facts were confirmed; they are not a quality judgement, and schools are never ordered by quality.
This page exists because at least three documented listings sit in Tampa. Areas with fewer listings appear on the Tampa Bay hub with the area filter applied instead — no thin pages.
