ARIZONA PRIVATE SCHOOL TAX CREDIT INFORMATION: 2025!

Primavera greatly appreciates your support.

With the closure of the Orme School on May 17, 2025, the Board of Directors of Orme Primavera Schools Foundation voted to self-decertify as an STO on June 30, 2025, and transfer all remaining funds to the Arizona Tuition Connection, another Arizona School Tuition Organization.

Since the Orme Primavera Schools Foundation is now closed and is no longer accepting tax credit donations for the 2025 tax year, we encourage our past donors to make their donations to the Arizona Tuition Connection and recommend that Primavera School students receive their donation.

Here are some additional links to STOs that have awarded scholarships to Primavera students in the past. For 2025, a married couple filing jointly may contribute as much as $3,062, and a single taxpayer may contribute as much as $1,535.

Student Tuition Organizations (STOs) cannot award, restrict, or reserve scholarships solely on the basis of donor recommendations. 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.

We want to thank everyone who has made their Arizona Private School Tax Credit donations to the Orme Primavera Schools Foundation since we incorporated in 1999. Your dollar-for-dollar tax credit donations have provided scholarships for so many Orme and Primavera students over the years and gave Arizona families the opportunity for school choice and the ability to afford a private school education for their children.

WHERE DO YOUR DOLLARS GO
Provides scholarships. Most of Primavera School Primary Students receive scholarships from STO’s or other programs. Distributing these dollars in the form of scholarships to families who need assistance in sending their Kindergarten through 8th grade.

It all goes to scholarships, minus a very small amount for administration fees, which is less than 5%.

How to Apply Your Tax Dollars to the Right Cause

1. Choose your STO to direct your tax credit dollars to. If you have a family member or friend that wants to recommend your child, an STO that allows student recommendations like IBE or others.

2. Make your donation! Remember, this money will be returned to you or taken off of your Arizona State Tax liability. If you are unsure what your tax burden is, you can still give and excess can be carried forward for up to 5 years!

3. Files your taxes with the Tax Credit Form 323 and/or 348 and you will receive your credit towards your Arizona State Taxes.
