Every Contribution Helps Students Thrive.
San Tan Charter School is a close-knit community that feels like a family. As a tuition-free public charter school, we receive funding from the State of Arizona similar to a traditional public school. However, public charter school students traditionally receive 20% less than what is given to public schools.
Charter schools are finding success because the private sector is better at managing funds, motivating teachers and staff, and focusing more on what children need for a quality education.
San Tan Charter School has a culture of excellence, caring, generosity, and going above and beyond.

The State of Arizona offers taxpayers the opportunity to contribute toward extra-curricular programs at any public school of their choice and receive a credit on their state taxes, better known as the Arizona Public School Tax Credit.

Our Private Montessori School gives out around $45,000.00 a year in scholarships to families in need. We can offer these scholarships because of the Arizona Private School tax credit program. The best part is that whatever you contribute, you will receive dollar for dollar back on your state taxes with this program.

Support San Tan Charter’s championship-winning athletics! Your donation helps provide coaches, gear, team meals, and the resources our student-athletes need to succeed on and off the field.
Up to $400 of the amount you contribute may be claimed as a state tax credit on your income tax return. For example, if you contribute $400 to San Tan Charter School, your state tax credit would be $400, which may be subtracted from any taxes you owe that year.
All contributions must be submitted by the end of the Calendar Year. You may pay in person, via postal mail, or via our electronic form. If you mail in your donation, make sure it is postmarked prior to Tax Day of the following year. We will also work with you on monthly, quarterly, or bi-annual contributions toward the Arizona Tax Credit, if that fits your budget best.
Contributions for the tax credit are donated directly to the school—not to the school district, and not even to the state. Your donation will go exactly where you want them, to the school, the students, the staff, and their programs.
No, Tax Credits are non-refundable.
Every gift—large or small—supports San Tan students with opportunities that state funding doesn’t cover. Join us in creating a stronger, safer, and more inspiring learning environment.
