ADHD & neurodivergent learners: El Paso schools, approved providers and TEFA

Approved El Paso providers that list ADHD, executive-function or neurodivergent-focused services, such as Desert Star Therapy, OKs Learning Center and the Chasing the Sounds music studio, and small-class schools where students get more individual attention. Many El Paso private schools enroll fewer than a hundred students, which some families of distractible or anxious learners count as a feature in itself. 5 schools and 4 approved providers in the El Paso area match.

Where this comes from. TEFA participation comes from the Texas Comptroller's participating-school finder, checked October 12, 2026. Enrollment and religious affiliation come from the NCES Private School Survey (U.S. Department of Education). Neither source reports tuition, so get current tuition and fees from the school.

What the account can pay for

Executive-function coaching and approved tutoring
Occupational and behavioral therapy
Music and enrichment programs that list a neurodivergent focus
Tuition at small participating schools

Therapy can be paid from the account only when Medicaid, another public program or private insurance isn't already covering it, and tutors have to meet the Comptroller's credential standards. Full list of approved expenses →
