UPDATE - Dec. 28, 2009

The Indiana Department of Education is expected within days to announce their application process for prospective scholarship granting organizations (SGOs).  We will notify our network by email and if you aren't on our email distribution lists, sign-up here.

Administrative rules for the program, published under "emergency rules" authority for a program to begin January 1, 2010, have been released by the Indiana Department of Education and the Indiana Department of Revenue.


Welcome to the Implementation Information Center for the Indiana School Scholarship Tax Credit Program - a cooperative project organized by School Choice Indiana to help interested organizations and individuals learn more about this exciting new program and how they can get involved.

Our goal is to not only provide information, but to solicit questions and suggestions about the STC program.  We would sincerely appreciate your feedback and involvement.

We have received a great many inquiries from parents, schools, non-profits, donors, and policymakers about the scholarship tax credit (STC).  Some of these we can answer today, while some we cannot until rules are adopted and programs begin to build-out. Regular updates by email and website will be forthcoming in the weeks ahead.  Make sure you receive our special scholarship tax credit email updates (free registration).  

The Indiana Department of Education and Department of Revenue will be promulgating rules on how the STC program will operate, interpretations of program components, etc. in the weeks ahead.  It is not yet clear when and how these rules will be adopted, so please stay tuned for updates.  Also, various organizations will be assisting in the promotion and/or implementation of this program to help parents, scholarship programs, schools, and donors.  Details on these programs are in development and news on how you can get involved will be provided as available.

Scholarship tax credit programs are not unique to Indiana and in the weeks ahead we will be sharing information from other states, including how-to's, lessons learned, best practices, application processes, and much more.  Stay tuned for updates.

 

 

 

Have Questions?

 

With the passage of STC only a month old, a number of questions and issues remain to be resolved in the rulemaking and implementation processes. We would be happy to try and answer your questions and plug you into our regular email updates.  Please contact Lindsey Brown at School Choice Indiana for more information.
