Did you know that Arizona law allows you to choose where some of your tax dollars go? Instead of sending all your money to the state, you can make a contribution directly to our school — and receive that full amount back as a dollar-for-dollar credit on your state taxes.
That means if you donate up to $200 as an individual or $400 as a married couple, you’ll get it all back when you file your taxes. It’s not a deduction — it’s a credit, so every dollar counts!
These contributions help fund things that make a real difference for our students — like extracurricular programs, arts, athletics, clubs, and field trips. Your support helps create richer experiences and more opportunities for every child in our community.
It’s quick, simple, and impactful. Just visit our school’s website to print and mail a form, or visit the front office to pay in person. Link here: https://www.stdavidschools.org/o/sdusd-21/page/tax-credits
Let’s make every dollar count for our kids and our classrooms. Together, we can keep our school strong and our students thriving.
There will be no school tomorrow, Tuesday, November 11, in observance of Veterans Day.
We take this day to honor and thank all who have served our country.
School will resume on Wednesday, November 12.
