IRS990/Desc	0	The largest expense for Dietrich Bonhoeffer Academy (DBA) during the past tax year was related to faculty staffing (employee salaries). At the start of the school's third full school year, DBA continued to employ its full-time Head of School who brings 20 years of teaching and administrative experience to the position. Along with managing and overseeing the school's operations, the Head of School also provided History and English Language Arts (ELA) instruction. DBA increased staffing from the prior school year from two to four part-time teachers. First, DBA added a science teacher with decades of experience and certifications with the National Math and Science Initiative to lead and advance the science program. They took over science instruction and curriculum development for all three grade levels. Next, DBA added an accomplished photographer and arts teacher to lead and develop the arts program. They also served in several instructional capacities during the afternoon learning period, taking over the social-emotional learning program by utilizing the resources of TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention). DBA continued to retain the Math and Spanish teachers from the prior school year, both of whom possess numerous years of middle school teaching experience to continue to build and advance the curriculum and instruction of those programs. Finally, due to enrollment increases during the school year, DBA also hired one additional part-time teachers aid during the spring semester. The staffing increases allowed the Head of School to reduce his course load and provide more effective leadership of the school. DBA serves middle school students in grades 6-8, and enrollment at the start of the school fall semester consisted of 12 students (4 in grade 6, 5 in grade 7, 3 in grade 8). The school spring semester saw enrollment changes by adding seven new students (3 in grade 6, 2 in grade 7, 2 in grade 8) with one 6th grade student leaving. DBA looks forward to further expanding its faculty as more students enroll.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc	0	The second largest expense for Dietrich Bonhoeffer Academy (DBA) during the past tax year was related to occupancy or facility tenant rent. DBA continued to be housed on the campus of Faith Lutheran Church of Bellaire, TX, and continued to utilize two rooms as classrooms with the occasional use of a third room. The rent also included use of an outdoor green space as its playground area and access to the church gymnasium twice a week. DBA compensated Faith Lutheran a monthly rent for the months of the school year (August '24 - May '25) and for the summer break (June '25 - July '25) to ensure the rooms used as classrooms were not utilized by the church during this period. In addition to rent, DBA paid property insurance as well. For the upcoming 2025-2026 school year, DBA expects to continue to grow the enrollment number of students. As a result, DBA plans to again be housed on the campus of Faith Lutheran Church for the next school year and continue to utilize the current two rooms with the addition of at least 2 more rooms. As a result, DBA would expect to pay a higher amount of rent for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.
