Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, as a high school student you don't get any education credits.  The education credits are for college students.  Refer to the TurboTax article What Are Education Tax Credits?

 

Also, since you are a high school student, your parents probably claim you as a dependent on their tax returns. Check with them before you file. If they claim you as a dependent, when completing your taxes, make sure that you state that you can be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return. 

 

Refer to the TurboTax article: How do I indicate that I can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's return? for instructions.
