STO
School Tuition Organizations (STO) are charitable Iowa-based Section 501(c)(3) organizations that raise tuition grant funding for eligible Iowa students who enroll in accredited nonpublic, Iowa-based, elementary or secondary schools based on parent choice. Iowa taxpayers who donate to STOs are eligible for a tax credit equal to 75 percent of the total contribution. The STO must represent more than one school and 90 percent of its annual revenue must be used to provide tuition grants to eligible Iowa students to cover all or part of related tuition costs.
Note from Mrs. Bohr
Our students and staff had the honor of meeting Joe Beckman last week! Throughout the last few years I’ve shared many of his motivational videos with our upper grade students in Guidance class. He is an amazing man with even more amazing messages to share!
We all have the power to be Difference Makers!
“It’s not about changing the world. It’s about changing one persons day!” -Joe Beckman
I often leave the guidance classroom saying one message before I leave. Today I share it with you- If no one has told you today…
You are loved and your are enough
