“Line 1a: somerset preparatory academy public charter school board has delegated authority to the executive committee to make reviews and recommendations on behalf of the governing body. The executive committee composition includes the board chair, board treasurer, and compliance chair. Scope of the executive committee includes: -serve as the ultimate steward of the mission of the organization. -recruit, support, and review the ceo. -provide effective and appropriate financial oversight. -promote the organization and enhance its public reputation. -ensure legal and ethical integrity and maintain accountability. -recruit and orient new board members and assess board performance.”
“Edops and chief administrative officer/principal review the form 990 after which the finance committee and the treasurer review the 990 and the chief administrative officer/principal signs it. A complete copy of the form 990 is emailed to all board members for their review.”
“The board members are asked if they have conflicts annually and are required to sign the conflict of interest policy form upon joining the board.”
“On an annual basis, the board of trustees contacts other local charter schools within the district of columbia to inquire about the salary/compensation of their executive leadership. The board also supplmements this survey by examining public compensation information for education/non-profit leadership. In addition, the board also received recommendations from other independent sources such as the charter board partners and focus. Based upon these varied sources, the board sets performance goals and compensation levels for the principal. The process for determining compensation for the head of school was last conducted in april 2017.”
“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are made available to the public upon request.”
“The total occupancy expense, including salaries for janitors, should be covered by the charter school incubator, the school's landlord. Since this agreement was finalized mid-way during the year and the janitors were already paid by the school's payroll by that time, the charter school incubator did not want to disturb this arrangement and agreed to reimburse their salaries. This amount is the reimbursement received from the charter school incubator for janitorial salaries.”
“These processes have not changed since the prior year.”
“The school has adopted the accounting of uncertainty in income taxes as required by the income taxes topic of the financial accounting standards board accounting standards codification. The school has analyzed its tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits are expected be recorded related to any uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2013-2015), or expected to be taken in its 2016 tax return. Cambridge preparatory academy dc is not aware of any tax positions for which it believes that there is a reasonable possibility that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months.”
