Governance Explanations

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

“The form 990 is prepared by the organization's outside public accounting firm based on information provided by management. Once a draft of the return is available, it is reviewed by management with any changes or revisions incorporated into the filing. The revised return is then submitted to the board of directors for their review and approval prior to submitting to the irs.”

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

“Monitoring is performed regularly by the officers to identify potential conflicts of interest. The board or designated committee reviews any conflicts presented by interested parties. The chairperson appoints a disinterested person or committee to investigate the transaction in question and report findings to the board. Alternatives to the proposed transaction are identified and compared to the proposed transaction. The board votes on the most beneficial option for the organization. If the board has reason to believe an interest person has failed to disclose the potential conflict, the board will investigate further and if necessary, take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“Policies are reviewed annually by leadership, key management, and grow public schools' legal team before being submitted to the board for approval in june for the following year as an action item. The chief executive officer's pay is determined based on data provided by external charter management organizations and through comparison studies of other charter schools. The board must vote to approve the chief executive officer's compensation as a direct action. The officers and key employees' pay is determined based on data provided by external charter management organizations and through comparison studies of other charter schools. The board must vote to approve the officers and key employees' compensation as a direct action. The process described here was last completed in 2023.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Grow public schools 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. Grow public schools is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to the exempt purposes. Grow public schools 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.”
