Schools

We aspire to provide School Choice available to Arizona families.

STO4KIDZ partners with Arizona private schools to provide tuition tax credit financial aids to students and encourage outreach within communities.

We work with private school administrators to establish a relationship that benefits both the students and the schools they attend.

Our goal is to support students by applying tax credit awards to tuition at a private school of their choosing. We encourage the cooperation of private schools and their administrations to help more students with tuition assistance.
