“The head of the school (dr. Robert w. Gaskins) and two board trustees (richard c. Gaskins, jr., esq. And dr. Irene w. Gaskins) are related.”
“The bylaws have been amended since the previous 990 was filed.”
“After form 990 is reviewed and approved by a committee of the board of trustees, an electronic copy of form 990, as ultimately filed, is provided to each trustee prior to filing with the irs.”
“Officers and trustees are required to disclose any potential conflicts of interest that may arise in the course of their responsibilities. They annually sign the corporate conflict of interest statement and identify any potential conflicts.”
“The head of school evaluation committee meets annually to review the head of school's compensation and reports its actions to the board of trustees.”
“The benchmark school makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
“The school uses endowment funds in accordance with the school's mission to help bright students who learn differently, or have yet to reach their academic potential, develop the confidence, strategies, and knowledge to become lifelong learners, thinkers, and problem-solvers.”
“The school is a nonprofit organization exempt from federal income taxes under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3). Accordingly no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. Management has reviewed tax positions taken in filings with federal and state jurisdictions and believes those positions would be sustained should the filings be examined by the relevant taxing authority. Should settlement of an examination, or other event, result in a change in management's evaluation of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in filings that have not been closed by statute or examination, any tax, interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefit, as a result of the uncertain tax position, would be in the provision for income taxes, interest expense, and operating expenses, respectively.”
