Pennridge School District Property Tax Rebate Program

Pennridge School District has a new way in which some of our taxpayers can benefit from tax relief. At the September 23, 2019 board meeting, the Pennridge School District Board of Directors approved a property tax rebate program that will see a discount of up to $250.00 for certain homeowners.

To qualify for the discount, applicants must be:

•  Homeowners with a household income of not more than $45,000 annually

           AND

• be 65 years of age or older; OR
• be a widow or widower aged 50 years of age or older; OR
• be permanently disabled and 18 years of age or older   

The property tax rebate program is based on the existing Pennsylvania Property Tax and Rent Rebate program, which has been in effect since 1971 and is funded by state lottery and slot machine proceeds.   Pennridge homeowners must qualify for the state rebate program to qualify for the district rebate program.   Pennridge School District is granting a 25 percent rebate as follows:

• 25 percent (maximum $250.00) annual rebate for Pennridge School District homeowners with a yearly household income between $0 to $8,000;     
• 25 percent (maximum $192.50) annual rebate for Pennridge School District homeowners with a yearly household income between $8,001 to $15,000;

• 25 percent (maximum $95.00) annual rebate for Pennridge School District homeowners with a yearly household income between $18,001 to $45,000)

Property Tax Rebates are for the homeowner's primary residence within Pennridge School District only.
