Wisconsin Tax Deductions
Beginning on January 1, 2014, the State of Wisconsin created an income tax deduction for elementary and secondary school tuition expenses. Taxpayers are able to claim their paid private and religious school tuition expenses of up to $4,000 for each dependent child in K-8 grade and up to $10,000 for each dependent child in grades 9-12.

Scrip Program
Scrip is a gift card fundraising program. St. Patrick’s Catholic School buys gift certificates from local and national retailers at a discount and then sells them to you at face value. The profits are split 75-25 between you and St. Patrick’s Catholic School. Many families budget their groceries, gas, clothing, dining, gifts and travel with Scrip cards.

For Example: St. Patrick’s Catholic School buys $100 Kwik Trip gas cards for $90. St. Patrick’s Catholic School sells you that $100 Kwik Trip gas card for $100. $7.50 will be credited to your tuition account and $2.50 will go to St. Patrick’s  Catholic School to operate the program.
