Kaleidoscope Charter School

“The School is comprised of two classes of members. Membership classes are as defined: local citizens/parents & guardians of enrolled students and employees of the School.”

“Community members, parents/guardians of students, and staff are eligible to vote for board members.”

“Actions of a committee shall only make recommendations for approval or denial on any topic presented to the committees. The School Board shall have final say on all matters that come from the committees.”

“The Form 990 is prepared and a draft is reviewed by the accounting service provider and the Executive Director prior to filing with the IRS.”

“Annually, board members and key employees complete a full disclosure which includes the member, their spouse, and close relatives to identify potential conflicts of interest. The board of directors reviews this and determines if any conflicts of interest exist. Conflict of interest forms are also reviewed annually by the audit firm. Individuals with potential or actual conflicts of interest do not vote on the related matters. All proceedings related to conflicts of interest are documented in the meeting minutes.”

“The board's personnel committee, based on annual performance reviews and comparative compensation information from other charter schools, determines the annual salaries and makes a recommendation to the board. The board then makes the final determination on compensation based on the recommendations from the finance and personnel committees as part of the annual budget process. This was last performed in 2021 for the Interim Executive Director for the 2021-2022 school year. No compensation is provided to board members who are not part of the staff.”

“The Organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available upon request. The form 990 is also available on GuideStar.”
