Question

My daughter is in 9th grade and is studying to be a professional dancer at the North Carolina School of the Arts. Is the school tuition deductible on my 2017 taxes?

No, you cannot deduct private tuition as education expenses, unfortunately.  For federal tax purposes, education expenses (of any kind) for K-12 grades are not deductible. Some states do offer the related deduction, please make sure to go through your state interview questions.
