Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“Form 990 is reviewed by management and the finance committee of the board of trustees for approval. If changes are required the school will then forward to the auditing firm and a final version will be distributed to all board members prior to irs submission.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“On an annual basis, all trustees are required to disclose, in writing, any interest such trustee may have in any corporation, organization, partnership or other entity which provides professional or other goods or services to the school for a fee or other compensation, and interest such trustee may have as a result of a position or other relationship with any not-for-profit corporation with which the school has an attorney-client or other business relationship (collectively, a "conflict of interest"). Additionally, the school shares its conflict of interest policy with officers and key employees annually, and these employees are expected to declare if at any point a conflict of interest arises.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“The compensation committee does a market analysis to compare leadership position salaries in similar organizations and is also involved in the approval for the annual budget for the school.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The school makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available upon request.”
