IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2The independent audit provides the basis for the Form 990
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3financials and is reviewed by the Board of Directors upon
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4adoption. The Form 990 is completed by the school's CFO, who then
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt5sends it to the Board for comment. The Board members then review
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt6the return and immediately respond with any errors they find. The
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt7return is then voted on at the next Board meeting.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt12employment and group affiliations of each Board member to help
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt13determine conflicts ahead of time.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt14For both the CEO and CFO salaries, the Board requested a salary

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt17was weighed along with the school's performance measures during
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt18the Board of Directors meetings and was documented in the minutes
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt19of those meetings.
