The Hillside School

“A draft of the 990 is available to the full board of directors in the office of the school for a period of time preceding the filing of the form.”

“The school has each employee and board member sign a conflict of interest policy at least annually. The signed forms are reviewed for any issues and addressed as necessary.”

“Executive compensation is based on advis, nais and pais listings of head salaries for schools under 200 students (lowest enrollment). The school looks at size, type, operating budgets, experience and socio-economic regions. All other salaries are also compared to these benchmarks. Once the amounts are determined based on information from the advis, nais and pais sources, the executive committee reviews and reports to the board for approval.”

“Government documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available in the school office upon request. In addition, the 990 can be found at the guidestar website.”

“The mission of the hillside school is to maximize the potential of children with learning disabilities through excellence in education.”

“This accredited, non-profit k-8 school has established a two-fold vision to accomplish its mission. The first is to be a leader in the education of children with learning disabilities; the second is to educate and develop community awareness of the needs of children and adults with learning disabilities.”
