The board of directors is responsible for the oversight of the audit of the financial statements prepared by sikich llp.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The school is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the u.s. Internal revenue code. The school is not considered a private foundation by the internal revenue service. The school does not consider any of its support and revenues to be unrelated business income and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying financial statements. The school evaluates its uncertain tax positions on an annual basis, and there have been no recorded uncertain tax positions recorded in 2023 and 2022. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included on the financial statements. The school files various federal or state non-profit tax returns. The school is no longer subject to u.s. Federal or state examinations by tax authorities for tax years prior to 2020.
