Georgia Christian School: Academic Excellence in a Christian Environment
Academics
Student Scholarship Organization
(SSO)
In May of 2008, Gov. Perdue signed HB1133 into law. This allows Georgia taxpayers to direct their tax dollars to private schools. It also gives private schools an opportunity to offer scholarships to students. We are excited to be working with Georgia Student Scholarship, Inc. (GASSO) and have already had two meetings in regards to the benefits for taxpayers and those seeking scholarships. Two $2,250 scholarships have already been awarded. These meetings described the process of how to donate to receive a dollar for dollar tax credit (up to $2,500 for married filing jointly) on GA state taxes and how a student can receive thousands of dollars in scholarships.
Below are attachments that include FAQs and different forms for the process of donating and applying for scholarships. Please call or come by our front office for more information.
The deadline for Non-Designated Scholarship Requests is noon September 15, 2009. Please ensure that you have turned in all documents to Georgia Christian School and that you enrolled your child in a public school when you made the actual scholarship request.
