Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

There are no committees that have the authority to act on behalf of the board.

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

The return is initially reviewed by management and then reveiwed by the board prior to filing return.

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

Synergy's officers, directors or trustees, and key employees complete form 700 each year to publicly disclose any potential conflicts of interest.

Monitoring is performed regularly by the officers to identify potential conflicts of interest. Any question of a conflict is addressed with the interested person, who is required to disclose the existence of any financial interest and be afforded the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the board and executive director. If a conflict of interest is identified, the appropriate action is taken, including limitations to the individual's influence on related business matters.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Synergy academies has a compensation policy in which no management offical including directors and key employees may be compensated without board approval. In addition, the reasonableness of compensation will be reviewed to comparable data and the deliberation and decision of the reasonableness of the compensation will be documented in the corporate minute books. This process will review the fairness of any compensation to these top management officals upon their hire or change in compensation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

The school provides its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements to the public upon request.

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

The process has not chnaged from prior year.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

Synergy is a nonprofit entity exempt from the payment of income taxes under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and california revenue and taxation code section 23701d. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes. Management has determined that all income tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon potential audit or examination; therefore, no disclosures of uncertain income tax positions are required. Synergy is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to the exempt purposes. Synergy files an exempt school return and applicable unrelated business income tax return in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and with the california franchise tax board.
