Governance Explanations

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

“The form 990 is compiled by the Vice President, Mr. Matthew Anderson. It is then sent out to the board of directors for review, who have 48 hours to return comments. Further, advice is sought from a professional lawyer on the form to ensure accuracy.”

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

“Every director and officer is made aware of the Conflict of Interests policy when they become a member of the board. If a decision needs to be made regarding a director that would involve the conflict of interests policy, that director is asked to leave the board meeting. For instance, when determining the compensation of Mr. Matthew Anderson, Mr. Anderson was not present in the meeting as the board members discussed and determined an appropriate market value amount.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The organization consulted the broader Chesterton Schools Network to determine appropriate compensation for its employees. In particular, this process was completed for the headmaster in 2022, teachers in 2022, and the Director of Development in 2023.”

IRS990/Desc	0	The primary work of the Chesterton Foundation of St. George was to run an educational program presenting classes in classical education and Catholic spirituality to students in grades 9 through 11. This year, the organization continued to employ its two full time teachers from last year. Furthermore, the organization expanded its number of classes so as to be able to offer two years worth of classes from the Chesterton Schools Network Curriculum. This necessitated the hiring of a third full time teacher to specialize primarily in science while also covering some of the humanities classes. The organization also continued to rent out a facility from Bethany House. For these educational services the organization did generate revenue through the charging of tuition and fees.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc	0	The second major program achievement of the organization this year was the further development of the curriculum for the educational program. The organization invested in classical books, a set curriculum through the CSN, materials for its arts and science program, and more. As the organization maintains a low technology philosophy of education, investments in books are critical. The organization also added a drama department this year as well as investing in new microscopes and dissection equipment for its new biology course. The organization continued its use of standardized testing and writing programs to grown student learning. Finally, the organization also invested in developing its instructors through sending them to the annual Chesterton Schools Network Conference in the summer.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc	0	The third and final achievement of the organization during the year was the providing of cultural events to further our students' education. The organization believes that education is not just done in the classroom but through a lived experience of the true, the good, and the beautiful. Therefore, events such as family liturgical celebrations, concerts, and pilgrimages are critical to a child's education. The organization achieved this vision by hosting events such as three concerts, an opening Mass, and an Advent celebration. To enhance the celebration of these events, the organization provided light refreshments. Furthermore, the organization also invest in an annual pilgrimage to the March for Life in Washington DC. This trip helps form in students the "Cultura Vitae" that is the motto of the organization. This trip required serious investments such as rental vehicles and hotel stays.
