NEW LEGISLATION HAS INCREASED THE GEORGIA SSO SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM BEGINNING IN 2023!
Just a reminder to make your 2023 pledge for the GaSSO which assists DCS in providing student scholarship dollars.

Please pledge the maximum amount listed. It is important to pledge the maximum because, when the tax credit cap is reached or exceeded, there will be no more pledges accepted throughout the year, limiting our school's ability to increase our scholarship balance.

You may not get approved for that sum and there is NO OBLIGATION to fund the entire amount.
