Tax Credit contributions support our extra-curricular and athletic programs, field trips, clubs, and character-building programs. The Arizona Public School Tax Credit allows Arizona taxpayers to contribute to the public school of their choice and receive a dollar-for-dollar credit on their state taxes. Married couples may contribute up to $400 and single filers may contribute up to $200 and receive the full credit when they file their AZ state taxes. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Meghan Murphy, Academy Giving Manager, at (480)222-1507. Thank you!
