General Giving Information

The Orange County School of the Arts is a tuition-free, donation-dependent, public charter school. No student is admitted or denied based upon financial capacity. However, each school year we must raise approximately $8 million to fund the fourteen arts conservatories, and we rely on our families and the community-at-large to help us reach this goal. 

All cash donations to the school are fully tax deductible.
OCSA is registered as a non-profit organization per IRS designation 501(c)3. Please click here for a copy of the IRS letter.

Details regarding our Parent Giving Program are presented at annual parent meetings.
