Did you know you can use your tax dollars to support Arcadia Sky Community School?
As an Arizona taxpayer, you have a unique opportunity with the Arizona Public School Tax Credit to support Arcadia Sky at no cost to you, just by redirecting some of the state income tax you have to pay anyway. As a dollar-for-dollar credit against state income taxes, not a deduction, it literally costs you $0. How cool is that!?
Why donate to Arcadia Sky Community School?
When you donate your school tax credit to Arcadia Sky Community School, you help support the wonderful educational opportunities we offer as Tucson’s only tuition-free elementary charter school guided by the core Principles of Public Waldorf Education. Your tax credit donations support gardening, handwork, art, student journalism, music experiences, and more! We are grateful that tax credit donations can now be used to fund campus construction and school lunch fees. Your tax credit donations, and those of your family members, friends, colleagues, neighbors, and faith community members, help the school maintain and expand its well-rounded educational programming.
It’s easy to donate by check, credit, or cash.
Step 1
How do I calculate my tax liability?
Ask your tax preparer, or look at your state tax form 140. From your ‘taxable income’ (line 45) calculate the amount of tax (line 46). You record the amount of your Tax Credit Donation on Form 301. Arcadia Sky Community School’s charter district number is #108732101. Single filers can claim up to $200, and those married filing jointly can claim up to $400. Your tax credit donation to Arcadia Sky Community School is deducted from the amount of taxes you owe.
Step 2
