Private school tuition

[concerned1977]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? va

can you deduct private school tuition for elementary school similar to what you would do for college tuition? if you can't deduct it like you would for college tuition is there another way to deduct the elementary school tuition from my taxes?

(this is the first year we've sent the kids to private school).

thanks.

Nope. I looked everywhere. There is no deduction for private K-12 school.

thanks.

that's what I thought, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks.

No, nor should there be as a policy.
