For school administrators

Your tuition floor is set by the voucher. Now there's room above it.

Most heads of school running scholarship-supported families know the math. Tuition tops out at the voucher level. Teachers are underpaid. Families are stretched. The federal SGO opens room above that floor — and our team handles the operation.

Resources

State guides, tax-credit explainers, and the talking points your team uses with families.

01

A credit for a gift, not a tuition mechanism.

Donors redirect what they already owe in federal tax through the Federal School Choice Tax Credit — up to $1,700 individual or $3,400 joint. The gift goes to CEN as the SGO. You get a scholarship pool you didn't have last year, with compliance, receipts, and disbursement handled.

02

Stacks with your state program.

EdChoice. Step Up. GOAL. OSTC. The federal credit is for a charitable gift to an SGO — different mechanism, runs alongside the state vehicle you already know. Families and donors can participate in both. See your state.

03

Built for the stewardship frame.

Families channel the recouped dollars back into Christian formation — tuition, giving, or the school itself. The script we provide your team carries the why. Your team doesn't walk anyone through tax mechanics. That's on us.

What participating schools say.

"The SGO finally lets us set tuition where it needs to be — and that means we can pay teachers what they deserve. The scholarship pool also means more families who want a Christian education can actually afford one. Both shifts in the same year."

"I came in skeptical — I'd seen enough SGO pitches over the years to know what an overpromise looks like. The walkthrough answered every question my board asked, in the order they asked it. We were operational by the next enrollment cycle."

FAQ FOR ADMINISTRATORS

The questions heads of school ask first.

What does the SGO change for our school?

It opens room to raise tuition above the existing voucher floor, which means better teacher pay, more intervention services, and a sustainable budget. Schools who currently see 60 to 90 percent of students on full vouchers will see the biggest shift.

Do we have to do our state SGO credit before the national one?

What about capacity?

How do schools qualify?

How do administrators talk to families about this?

What's the time commitment from us?

What's the cost?

How long until we're up and running?
