Supporting the Youth Through Scholarships

A Foundation Focused on the Education Tax Credit Program

Invest your tax dollars wisely in Arizona's future and give generously in support of high-quality education at Primavera School Pre-K - 8th grade and the Orme School!

Deadline for 2024 donations is April 15, 2025.

You Decide How Your Tax Dollars Are Spent

All of the tax dollars that you direct to the Orme Primavera Schools Foundation go directly into a scholarship fund that is distributed to approximately 30 qualified students at Primavera School Pre-K - 8th grade and the Orme School each year. Your dollar-for-dollar tax credit donation costs you nothing and supports a quality independent school education for students and families who appreciate the opportunity to attend these two schools because of the scholarship assistance they receive from you.

The Orme School College Preparatory

Since 1929 Orme has been one of the most well respected college-preparatory boarding schools in the United States. Students come from all corners of Arizona and around the world to take advantage of Orme’s unique, experiential curriculum. Sustainability, Horsemanship and Outdoor Adventure round out our rigorous AP curriculum, offering all students the opportunity to develop a well-rounded college profile.

Primavera School Pre-K – 8th Grade

The sense of community at Primavera enables the students and their families to share a passion for learning that lasts a lifetime.

An emphasis on the education of the “whole child” at a school where student voices are heard and respected and where learning is challenging, relevant, and relationship-driven is demonstrated on a daily basis at Primavera School! Pre-K - 8th grade.
