Governance Explanations

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

The organization's board of directors is a self-perpetuating board. The board accepts resignations and appoints new board members from time to time.

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

The board of directors handles normal governance items typical of any board. The board approves policies, establishes tuition levels and hires and fires the head of the school (principal). The day to day operating decisions of the school - all of them, including hiring and firing other employees and accepting or rejecting student applicants, and disciplinary issues such as suspensions of students etc - are made by the head of school (principal) and are not made by the board.

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

The embers academy reviews the annual form 990 after it has been completed by the outside accountant. Those reviewing this form include the head of the school, the internal accountant and the school board. Information needed to complete the form 990 was obtained from the books and records of the school and by answers to questions received from various personnel of the school.

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

The board of directors regularly monitors and enforces the conflict of interest policy. The organization has not borrowed money or paid for services from board members.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Compensation for the two top employees (the head of the school/principal and the assistant head/vice principal of the school) is determined by the board of directors after reviewing factors such as average compensation levels for employees at similar organizations (comparability data). Neither top employee are board members and they have no say whatsoever regarding their compensation. Board members are not compensated for their board services. All compensation decisions made by the board of directors are documented in minutes of the board.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

All governing documents, policy manuals, financial statements and copies of form 990 are made available to anyone who requests this information in addition to being reviewed and monitored by the embers academy school board. In addition, policy manuals are given to all parents and prospective and enrolled students. This is in the form of a student handbook which is updated each year.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS A SELF-PERPETUATING BOARD. THE BOARD ACCEPTS RESIGNATIONS AND APPOINTS NEW BOARD MEMBERS FROM TIME TO TIME.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HANDLES NORMAL GOVERNANCE ITEMS TYPICAL OF ANY BOARD.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2THE EMBERS ACADEMY REVIEWS THE ANNUAL FORM 990 AFTER IT HAS BEEN COMPLETED BY THE OUTSIDE ACCOUNTANT. THOSE REVIEWING THIS FORM INCLUDE THE HEAD OF THE SCHOOL, THE INTERNAL ACCOUNTANT AND THE SCHOOL BOARD. INFORMATION NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE FORM 990 WAS OBTAINED FROM THE BOOKS AND RECORDS OF THE SCHOOL AND BY ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS RECEIVED FROM VARIOUS PERSONNEL OF THE SCHOOL.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS REGULARLY MONITORS AND ENFORCES THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY. THE ORGANIZATION HAS NOT BORROWED MONEY OR PAID FOR SERVICES FROM BOARD MEMBERS.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4COMPENSATION FOR THE TWO TOP EMPLOYEES (THE HEAD OF THE SCHOOL/PRINCIPAL AND THE ASSISTANT HEAD/VICE PRINCIPAL OF THE SCHOOL) IS DETERMINED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AFTER REVIEWING FACTORS SUCH AS AVERAGE COMPENSATION LEVELS FOR EMPLOYEES AT SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS (COMPARABILITY DATA). NEITHER TOP EMPLOYEE ARE BOARD MEMBERS AND THEY HAVE NO SAY WHATSOEVER REGARDING THEIR COMPENSATION. BOARD MEMBERS ARE NOT COMPENSATED FOR THEIR BOARD SERVICES. ALL COMPENSATION DECISIONS MADE BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ARE DOCUMENTED IN MINUTES OF THE BOARD.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt5ALL GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, POLICY MANUALS, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND COPIES OF FORM 990 ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO ANYONE WHO REQUESTS THIS INFORMATION IN ADDITION TO BEING REVIEWED AND MONITORED BY THE EMBERS ACADEMY SCHOOL BOARD.
