Arizona Tax Credit
How The Arizona Tax Credit Works
The Arizona Tax Credit enables Arizona taxpayers to contribute to a public school and receive a dollar-for-dollar credit on their state taxes. Married couples filing jointly may contribute up to $400 and single filers may contribute up to $200 to offset their state tax liability. The funds support field trips and club activities. This means that, so long as the contribution is less than or equal to the tax payer’s tax liability, there is no cost to the tax payer. This enables tax payers to direct a portion of their state income taxes to public schools.
Who May Participate?
Every Arizona taxpayer can take advantage of the Arizona Tax Credit and support Desert Sage High School’s capacity to offer extended field trips and extra-curricular activities for our students. Please encourage your family, friends, neighbors, and community members to contribute.
When’s the Deadline?
Contributions can be submitted by tax day the following year. For example, if you want to claim a 2024 Tax Credit, your donation must be submitted or postmarked by April 15, 2025.
