An expanded and improved array of tax credits include: Earned Income Credit (EIC), the Child Tax Credit (CTC), the newly created Making Work Pay Credit. In addition, a new American Opportunity Credit can help low-wage workers pay for college. More information can be found at the Tax Credit Outreach Campaign website at http://eitcoutreach.org/.

From the Co-Principals

Welcome to St. Ignatius Loyola School's Web site!
 
St. Ignatius Loyola Parish School was founded in 1907 and is located in Hicksville, New York. For almost a century, our religious and academic programs have nurtured and developed each child's God-given gifts and talents to ensure them to lead happy and productive lives in this twenty-first century.

The faculty of St. Ignatius Loyola School works together to create an environment whereby each person is welcomed, respected and valued. We support and encourage student relationships built on mutual respect and concern for one another.

We firmly believe that every child should be provided with the means to reach his/her full potential in an academic climate rooted in the Gospel values of love, compassion, respect, hope and understanding.

Come visit "the best kept secret on Long Island."
