Arizona Tax Credit Information

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ARIZONA TAX CREDIT

Invest in Arizona’s students by investing in their future by contributing to the private school state tax credit. Your decision to invest your tax dollars over the last 26 years has provided hundreds of scholarship awards for deserving Arizona students. Thank you for your past support and current consideration as a donor. Please continue to support Primavera School students by making your tax credit donation to the Arizona Tuition Connection or the STO of your choice and recommend Primavera School students. Thank you!

Last year

The Orme-Primavera Schools Foundation raised $248,755.09 from Arizona taxpayers. Those funds were distributed to 12 students at Primavera School Pre-K - 8th grade in Prescott and to 19 students at the Orme School in Mayer. Your participation in this unique opportunity to support private education directly in Arizona through the state tax credit program is deeply appreciated and shows your belief in providing an exceptional education to deserving students in our state.

Grandparents, parents, alumni, friends, and relatives

Residing in Arizona can all participate and help in this very worthy endeavor. A married couple filing a joint return for 2025 may give up to $3,062.00 to a qualified student tuition organization and receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit from the State of Arizona. Single taxpayers may give up to $1,535.00. Thank you so much for your past support of the Orme Primavera Schools Foundation, allowing more Arizona students to have the opportunity to experience the many things that make a Primavera School Pre-K - 8th education so exceptional. Since the Orme Primavera Schools Foundation is now closed for 2025, we recommend that you make your tax credit donation to the Arizona Tuition Connection and recommend Primavera School students.

A school tuition organization cannot award, restrict, or reserve scholarships solely on the basis of donor recommendation. A taxpayer may not claim a tax credit if the taxpayer agrees to swap donations with another taxpayer to benefit either taxpayer’s own dependent.
