Dear friends,

The time has come! With the end of the calendar year upon us, please don’t forget to register to participate in the Georgia Private School Tax Credit program today! The deadline for registering is Friday, December 16. Thank you to the members of our community who have already redirected a portion of your state tax dollars to The Children’s School to provide need-based financial support to TCS families through this program. 

If we want to continue building a diverse TCS community, we need your help! This program supports economic diversity at TCS, which benefits everyone in the community, both children and adults. We need support from you -- our TCS families and friends -- today.

By participating in the Georgia Private School Tax Credit program, you will get a full tax credit on your state income taxes and a charitable contribution deduction on your federal tax return for the amount you redirect.*  This is your chance to have a say in how your tax dollars are used and to support financial aid at the school you love -- please redirect today!

You can redirect up to:

$1,000 individual filer

$2,500 married filing jointly

$1,250 married filing separately

$10,000 for pass-through taxpayers (members of LLC, S-Corp shareholder or partnerships)

75% of a C-Corporation or taxable trust's total Georgia tax liability

Please join parents like Nancy Baughan in redirecting your taxes to The Children’s School today. Nancy says “the Georgia Private School Tax Credit is an easy way to support The Children’s School. Every dollar the state allows to be redirected will support a private school in Georgia. The program funds allocated to TCS will help make the TCS experience available to a broader population of metro Atlanta students."

Your redirection is a simple step that makes a big difference to TCS. Thank you!

Kind regards,

Betsy Oliver
