Tauscher Times 12.20.22
Hello Power Campus!
I hope everyone is enjoying some time with their families and friends over the break. Here at school, we are making plans for the second semester and making calls to make sure families are re-enrolled for next school year. NEW FAMILIES will be able to enroll starting January 3, so make sure to have your spot available if you are a returning family and re-enroll today!
Enrollment Information
REMINDER: This year all students can be re-enrolled online—it is SO EASY!
This year, we have gone to completely ONLINE registration! No more paper packets!! While the phone app is convenient for most things – we recommend using a computer to complete re-enrollment.
Please Log into your Parent Portal. Go to “More” and then “Online Registration.”
- Confirm existing students’ information
- Add any new siblings
Tax Credit Giving
In the time of giving, thank you for helping us achieve our goal of $100,000.00 at San Tan Charter.
The form link is now open to donate at the following address:
https://yqysjrrxph.formstack.com/forms/?1627645-EuNcDzZTd2
With your support, we can continue to provide the programs outlined below:
- Junior High and High School Culinary Arts: Restaurant quality cutlery, pots/pans, additional shelving, and supplies for the classroom
- Full-Day Kindergarten Scholarship
- Funding for the Library/Media Space
- Health Care Supplies
- Playground Equipment
In addition, our Montessori Preschool School gives out around $45,000.00 a year in scholarship to those families in need, we are able to offer these scholarships because of the Arizona School tax credit program. The best part is whatever you contribute, you will receive dollar for dollar back on your state taxes. So, if you give $100, you can deduct that $100 off what you owe in taxes. You do not have to have a child at the school to pledge, you must only be an AZ State resident paying AZ State taxes.
