    The Soda Springs Education Foundation is a great way to ensure your donations go directly to improving the quality of education in our community as well as to the programs in which your child participates.

    Through Idaho’s State Tax Credit, you can specify that you want some of your tax dollars diverted to the schools in Soda Springs.

    Many parents donate to their child’s area of interest or to individual classroom teachers on an annual basis! 

    The local foundation funds projects that are above and beyond what School District can supply, such as:

·    Sponsoring new teaching ideas that may inspire a love of learning

·    Making advanced software and other technology available

·    Supporting extracurricular programs such as art, music, drama, vocational programs, elementary programs, special projects, dance, cheerleading, and athletics equipment just to name a few!

·   Procuring equipment or supplies

    Simply make a donation to the Soda Springs Education Foundation and claim both a tax credit and tax deductions for your gift.


In addition, a contribution to the Soda Springs Education Foundation can mean tax savings!
