Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“A copy of federal form 990 is provided to the finance/audit committee of the school's board of trustees for review and approval prior to filing. Such review and approval is included in the school's board minutes and documented by board resolution.”

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

“Annually each board member of the school is required to complete a conflict of interest and disclosure form, providing sufficient information about his/her personal interests and relationships so the organization can 1) determine whether any potential or actual conflicts of interest may exist and 2) monitor service assignments to avoid placing the board member in a position where there may be an appearance, potential or actual, of a conflict of interest or a question of objectivity. The completed conflict of interest and disclosure forms are returned to the school.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The compensation committee of the board of trustees determines the compensation of the headmaster after research and review of information including comparable data from similar sized tax exempt organizations in the western new york area as well as compensation for the position within other private schools of similar size, demographics and geography. Review and approval of the compensation arrangement is documented in the school's payroll records. The compensation committee of the board of trustees determines the appropriateness of the compensation of key employees (suggested by the headmaster) after research and review of information including comparable data from similar sized tax exempt organizations in the western new york area as well as compensation for similar positions within other private schools of similar size, demographics and geography.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization will provide applicable documents upon request at it's offices at 2491 emery road, south wales, ny 14139. A nominal fee is charged if copies are requested.”
