Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A

The board of directors are nominated and voted on by parents, guardians and employees.

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

The form 990 is prepared by an independent cpa firm and reviewed by the finance committee. A copy is provided to the board of directors for review prior to filing with the irs.

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

The conflict of interest policy covers all board members. The determination as to whether a conflict of interest exists is to be made by the school board. Any school board member who has an actual or potential conflict shall notify the school board of such conflict immediately. The school board member shall thereafter cooperate with the school board as necessary for the school board to make its determination. When a conflict of interest exists with a bank or savings association, the conflicted board member must disclose their interest and the interest must be documented in the minutes. When a conflict of interest exists relating to a contract for which competitive bids are not required by law, the school board member must file an affidavit containing the member's interest and the contract terms with the school board clerk, and the school board must authorize the contract in advance of its performance determining that the price is appropriate. The school board must unanimously approve interested contracts when they relate to banks/savings associations, the designation of an official newspaper, or publication of official matters, contracts with a cooperative association of which the member is a shareholder but not a manager or officer, contracts for which competitive bids are not required by law, contracts to rent space in a public facility to the school. The school board must approve insterested contracts by a majority when all members are present.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

The board reviews the executive director's performance and uses market rate analysis to determine the compensation. The executive director uses the starting pay scale based on number of years of experience in the classroom to determine the school teachers' compensation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available to the public upon request.
