ASA students have the opportunity to participate in more than just in-classroom education! We offer a variety of middle school and high school extracurricular clubs, including service clubs, competitive academic clubs, career-related organizations, and student-interest activities that help students develop their leadership skills, boost their self-esteem, learn about their classmates, and uncover hidden talents.
Unfortunately, the state budget does not fully fund these activities. Our extracurricular program and character-building classes require additional funds to cover necessary items such as faculty stipends, supplies, educational materials, equipment, and more.
We count on funds raised through the Arizona Public School Tax Credit program to ensure the much-loved student activities and classes are possible!

Donors can give a maximum of $200 for single taxpayers or heads of household and $400 for couples filing jointly to receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit. You have until Tax Day to make a tax credit gift that is eligible for your Arizona state tax filings.
With the Arizona Public School Tax Credit, you can make a gift to Arizona School for the Arts and get it right back on your state taxes as a dollar-for-dollar tax credit! For example, if you donate a $200 tax credit gift to ASA when you file your taxes in the spring, your state tax bill will be $200 less. Re-direct your tax dollars directly to the school of your choice — Arizona School for the Arts!
Your Arizona Public School Tax Credit gift to ASA means supporting all Life Skills classes and nearly 50 Extracurricular Clubs. Activities such as Mock Trial, Robotics, Cross Country, and Model UN rely on tax credit contributions! These opportunities build character, leadership, and opportunities beyond the exploration of interests beyond the classroom. The clubs and activities our students love would not be possible without your support!
