International school tuition

My son is 4.  In the country we are currently stationed they have 2 years of KG.  For him to be current when we return back to the states we had to send him to school this year but the DOD would not pay for it since my son is not 5 yet. .  Can I somehow write this off or get something back?  When i add it as child care i get nothing back because my wife showed no federal income and paid no tax as we are in a combat zone (We are at a US Embassy).

Unfortunately there is no way to get a tax break for this.
