i'm filing 1040 line 34 ...I pay $3650.00 for my child's high school yearly tuition.
Can this be a deduction for line 34?
I've already tried...
I don't know if tuition for high school is included for this deduction or is this deduction only for college tuition?

Deduction of tuition and fees on line 34 is NOT allowed for high school tuition. It applies to colleges, universities, vocational schools, and other post-secondary eduction institutions.
I dont know what state you live in, but some states allow deduction on state return for tuition paid to elementary and high school. It is good to take a look at this.
