Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“Form 990 is reviewed by management and the finance committee of the board of directors for approval. If changes are required, the organization will then forward the form 990 to the auditing firm and a final version will be distributed to all board members prior to the irs submission.”

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

“The school shares its conflict of interest policy with board members, officers and key employees (if any) on an annual basis. Officers, directors, and key employees (if any) are expected to declare if at any point a conflict of interest arises. After disclosure of a potential conflict, the individual in question must recuse themselves from voting on the matter. Such matters involving the existence of conflicts of interest are documented in the minutes of the governing board.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“The organization's board of directors uses comparable data when determining the compensation of officers and key employees. This process last occurred in 2015 and is documented in the minutes of the governing board.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization makes its form 990 available for public inspection as required under section 6104 of the internal revenue code. The return is posted on guidestar.org and other similar types of websites. In addition, the financial statements, conflict of interest policy, articles of incorporation and by-laws are also available upon written request at 2130 adam clayton powell jr. Blvd, new york, ny 10027 or by calling the organization directly at (347)931-8120.”
