Governance Explanations
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B
“There are no committees with the authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11
“A draft form 990 is presented to the entire kss board of directors annually before filing. It is reviewed in detail and board approval is required before signing and filing.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C
“Upon hiring or election to the board, all key personnel (i.e. Board and executive employees) are required to sign the conflict of interest statement. Annually, all key personnel are required to recertify that no conflicts exist. If a conflict arises, it will be reviewed by the executive director, director of finance & administration and the board. Restrictions will vary depending on level of conflict indicated. To date there are no conflicts, hence no restrictions.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A
“All employees are required to have an annual review prior to any changes in compensation. The executive director's compensation is reviewed by both internal staff and the board of directors. All other officers and employee compensation is reviewed by the executive director. Salary must be within acceptable ranges as published by colorado non profits association. This process was undertaken in 2014 for the 2013 year.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
FORM 990, PART I, LINE 5, PART VI, LINE 2A, PART VII AND PART IX:
“Keystone science school, inc. (kss) has a client service agreement with diversified human resources (dhr), an unrelated organization. Dhr is a professional employer organization. As a result, dhr is the employer for the purpose of paying wages and benefits. Kss inputs and approves all employee time and wages into dhr's online system and dhr processes the payroll and administers all benefits on behalf of kss. Dhr also remits all taxes and files all returns under their name and employer identification number. The salary, benefits, and payroll tax expenses shown on line 5,7,8,9, and 10 of part ix represent amounts paid by dhr as part of the client service agreement. In addition, kss is not reporting any paid employees because of the relationship with dhr as stated above.”

Supplemental Narrative
Financial Statement Notes
PART X, LINE 2:
“The school is organized as a colorado nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the internal revenue service (irs) as exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(a) of the internal revenue code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3), qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under section 170(b)(1)(a)(viii), and has been determined not to be a private foundation under section 509(a)(2). The school is annually required to file a return of organization exempt from income tax (form 990) with the irs. In addition, the school is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to our exempt purpose. We determined we are not subject to unrelated business income tax and have not filed an exempt organization business income tax return (form 990-t) with the irs. We believe that we have appropriate support for any tax positions taken affecting our annual filing requirements, and as such, do not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The school would recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and liabilities in income tax expense if such interest and penalties were incurred.”
