“Mancos Valley Dragonfly School has a conflict of interest policy which includes having all new board and committee members sign an acknowledgement they have read and understood the policy. All board and committee members are required annually and in writing to disclose all businesses or other organizations of which the member or leader, or a member of his family, is an officer, member, owner, or employee; or for which the member or leader, or a member of his family, acts as an agent; or from which the member or leader, or a member of his family, receives compensation or remuneration of any sort, with which Mancos Valley Dragonfly School competes or with which Mancos Valley Dragonfly School has, or might reasonably in the future enter into, a relationship or a transaction. Mancos Valley Dragonfly School also has a policy directing the Board President and other Board Members on how to disclose a potential conflict of interest when issues are discussed or voted on, which includes disclosure and the party removing themselves from the meeting during discussion and vote. The policy directs the board or committee to seek alternates to the proposed transaction so as not producing a conflict of interest unless a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible.”

“The School's Director's salary was voted on and decided by the Board of Directors. The Board consulted with a few other schools about what a reasonable Director's salary should be, and then compared it with what the School was able to pay.”
