Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

There are no committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.

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

Form 990 is emailed to the board treasurer who is responsible for its review and presentation to the rest of the board members during a regularly scheduled open session.

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

Each board member is required to complete a conflict of interest form on an annual basis. All employees, officers, and directors are covered under the organization's conflict of interest policy. All designated employees are required to annually disclose potential conflicts, as well as when they arise. 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. Any questions of a conflict are addressed with the designated employee, who is required to disclose the existence of any material financial interest and be afforded the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the board. The board votes on the most beneficial option for the organization. If the board has reason to believe an interested person has failed to disclose the potential conflict, the board will investigate further and if necessary, take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. If a conflict of interest is identified, the organization will not enter into any contract or transaction in which a designated employee has a material interest. All deliberation and decisions are recorded in meeting minutes.

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

The superintendent'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 superintendent's compensation as a direct action. The board reviews compensation comparison survey and approves superintendent's salary annually. The process described here was last completed in 2024.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

The charter school will provide governing documents, conflict of interest forms, and financial statements upon request.

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

The process for oversight and selection of an independent accountant has not changed from the prior year.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The school 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. The school is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to the exempt purposes. The school 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.
