The cost of private or public school (K-12) doesn't qualify
for any education deductions or credits on your federal return.
If your child attends a daycare program before or after school,
whether at a public or private school or is enrolled in pre-kindergarten,
you may qualify for a child care
credit. Also,
some private school tuition for special needs students may be eligible for a
medical deduction.
A few states allow deductions for K-12 education and/or home
schooling expenses. If your state is one of them, we'll ask you about it
when we get to your state return.
