FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 & FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1	MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL & SCHOOL TRUST MISSION	Unable to have children of their own, Milton and Catherine Hershey signed the Deed of Trust establishing Milton Hershey School in 1909. For more than 100 years, the mission of the School has remained the same-to provide a nurturing home and school to children in need. MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL SERVES AS A HOME AND SCHOOL FOR APPROXIMATELY 1,891 STUDENTS IN GRADES PRE-K THROUGH 12. THE SCHOOL AIMS TO PROVIDE EACH OF THEM WITH AMAZING OPPORTUNITIES FOR LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM. OUR PROGRAMS TAKE A WHOLE CHILD APPROACH AND REMAIN TRUE TO OUR DEED OF TRUST, AS WE WORK EVERY DAY TO NURTURE AND EDUCATE CHILDREN SO THEY CAN LEAD FULFILLING AND PRODUCTIVE LIVES. STUDENTS LIVE IN 163 HOMES ACROSS CAMPUS. THESE STUDENT HOMES ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENTS FOR 8-12 STUDENTS OF SIMILAR AGES AND THE SAME GENDER, UP UNTIL THEIR SENIOR YEAR. HEALTHY LIVING AND PERSONAL WELLNESS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE CURRICULUM AT ALL GRADE LEVELS, AND STUDENTS RECEIVE MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE AT NO COST TO THEIR FAMILIES. STUDENT GROWTH AND LEARNING IS FORTIFIED BY FOCUSING NOT ONLY ON INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT, BUT ALSO ON EMOTIONAL, SOCIAL, AND SPIRITUAL ENRICHMENT. CHILDREN AT MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL RECEIVE A PREMIER EDUCATION, WITH SMALL CLASS SIZES AVERAGING 15 STUDENTS. THEY ALSO HAVE ACCESS TO CAREER/TECHNICAL AND EXTRACURRICULAR OPPORTUNITIES UNOBTAINABLE IN THEIR HOME COMMUNITIES. THE SCHOOL PROVIDES CHILDREN WITH VALUABLE NURTURING RELATIONSHIPS AND THE CRITICAL TOOLS THEY NEED NOT ONLY TO OVERCOME THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF POVERTY, BUT TO GUIDE THEM TOWARD SUCCESS IN TODAY'S COMPETITIVE AND CHALLENGING WORLD. STUDENT TEST SCORES ARE JUST ONE INDICATOR OF STUDENT SUCCESS AT MHS. MILTON HERSHEY STUDENTS PERFORM WELL ACADEMICALLY, OFTEN SCORING BETTER THAN STATE AVERAGES ON STANDARDIZED TESTING AND RANKING EXCEPTIONALLY HIGHER THAN STUDENTS FROM SIMILAR SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS. MHS SETS ITS SIGHTS HIGH BY ADOPTING THE STATE TARGETS AS A MINIMUM GOAL AND HAS OUT-PERFORMED STATE AVERAGES AND SCORES OF SOME PREMIER SCHOOL DISTRICTS. 80 PERCENT OF MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL GRADUATES CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION AT A TWO- OR FOUR-YEAR COLLEGE OR TRADE SCHOOL. FOR STUDENTS WHO WILL GO ON TO HIGHER EDUCATION, MHS OFFERS SCHOLARSHIP CREDITS TO COVER MOST OF THE TUITION, FEES AND ROOM AND BOARD. ONE OF THE PROGRAMS CONTRIBUTING TO SUCCESS FOR OUR GRADUATES IS THE TRANSITIONAL LIVING PROGRAM. DURING THEIR FINAL YEAR OF RESIDENCE AT MHS, SENIORS ARE PLACED IN A SEMI-INDEPENDENT ENVIRONMENT UNDER ADULT LIVE-IN SUPERVISION. THIS COLLEGE/DORMITORY LIFESTYLE AND ITS ACCOMPANYING RESPONSIBILITIES ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE SENIOR-YEAR LEARNING EXPERIENCE. EVERYTHING FROM PERSONAL FINANCE TO PERSONAL SAFETY TO HEALTHY SLEEPING AND EATING HABITS ARE COVERED AS PART OF THE TRANSITIONAL LIVING CURRICULUM. STUDENTS SURVEYED SAY THE EXPERIENCE ENHANCES THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND BUILDS THEIR CONFIDENCE. THE SCHOOL CARES FOR ITS STUDENTS 24 HOURS A DAY AND OPERATES YEAR ROUND, INCLUDING HOLIDAYS AND THE SUMMER MONTHS. WHILE MANY SCHOOLS CLOSE DOWN FOR THE SUMMER, STUDENTS AT MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL CONTINUE TO LEARN THROUGH THE SCHOOL'S OPTIONAL YEAR ROUND EXPERIENCE (YRE) PROGRAM. STUDENTS WHO CHOOSE TO STAY ON CAMPUS DURING SUMMER BREAK ARE PROVIDED WITH A NUMBER OF ENRICHMENT LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. FROM A SUZUKI FESTIVAL FEATURING ART, MUSIC, AND DANCE TO OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK ALONGSIDE VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS IN NON-EMERGENCY ENVIRONMENTS, A WIDE RANGE OF PROGRAMS TO SUIT ALL INTERESTS ARE OFFERED ON AND OFF CAMPUS. SIX WEEKS ARE PACKED FULL OF LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND ADVENTURES. IF YOU ASK THE CHILDREN, MANY SAY THE TIME GOES BY VERY QUICKLY. SEVENTY-NINE PERCENT OF STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN YRE PROGRAMMING IN THE 2012-2013 SCHOOL YEAR. THE MAIN GOAL FOR ALL OF OUR STUDENTS IS THAT THEY LEAVE THE SCHOOL WELL-PREPARED TO ENTER SOCIETY AS PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS. WE WANT ALL ENROLLED AT MHS TO BE GOOD STUDENTS, BUT WE ALSO WANT THEM TO BE GOOD PEOPLE, GOOD EMPLOYEES AND RESPONSIBLE MEMBERS OF THEIR COMMUNITIES. FORM OF ORGANIZATION MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST IS AN INTEGRATED TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION COMPOSED OF THE NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION, MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL, ACTING AS MANAGER UNDER THE DEED OF TRUST, AND THE TRUST ITSELF. THIS INFORMATIONAL RETURN IS REQUIRED TO INCLUDE THE EXPENSES OF THE ORGANIZATION AS A WHOLE, WITH DETAIL AS REQUIRED BY THE FORM INSTRUCTIONS. AS A RESULT, THIS RETURN INCLUDES ALL EXPENSES OF SERVING THE STUDENTS ENROLLED IN THE SCHOOL AND SCHOLARSHIP COSTS FOR ALUMNI PURSUING CONTINUING EDUCATION, AS WELL AS THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ADMINISTERING THE INVESTMENTS HELD IN THE TRUST.

THIRTY-SIX PERCENT OF STUDENTS HAVE ATTENDED THREE TO FIVE DIFFERENT SCHOOLS BEFORE ARRIVING AT MHS. FIFTY PERCENT HAVE EXPERIENCED DRUG AND ALCOHOL ABUSE IN THEIR FAMILY, AND THIRTY-NINE PERCENT HAVE WITNESSED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. STUDENTS ARE GIVEN PSYCHOLOGICAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT WHEN NEEDED, AND CLOSE TO 89 PERCENT OF STUDENTS RECEIVE ANYWHERE FROM ONE TO NINE SPECIALTY SERVICES. ELEVEN PERCENT RECEIVE TEN OR MORE SERVICES, WHILE LESS THAN ONE PERCENT OF STUDENTS RECEIVE NONE. A RIGOROUS ACADEMIC PROGRAM HELPS TO BRING STUDENTS UP TO GRADE LEVEL, AND THE AGGRESSIVE ACADEMIC SUPPORTS BRING MEASURABLE RESULTS. STUDENTS OUTPERFORM PEERS IN MOST SUBJECT AREAS ON STATE STANDARDIZED TESTING. IN FACT, MHS TEST SCORES ARE COMPARABLE TO SOME OF PENNSYLVANIA'S TOP SCHOOL DISTRICTS. A STRONG FOCUS ON CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION, JOB SHADOWING, AND HANDS-ON LEARNING HELPS TO PREPARE STUDENTS FOR LIFE BEYOND MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL. FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS, EVERY GRADUATING SENIOR EARNED AT LEAST ONE INDUSTRY CERTIFICATION BY PASSING AN INDUSTRY-APPROVED TEST IN THEIR AREA OF STUDY. CURRENTLY, THERE ARE ELEVEN CAREER PATHWAYS STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO PURSUE, INCLUDING BUSINESS/FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT & ACCOUNTING, LAW, PUBLIC SAFETY, & SECURITY, AND HEALTH SCIENCE.

THERE WERE 36,124 MEDICAL VISITS BY STUDENTS TO THE SCHOOL'S MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS DURING THE REPORTING YEAR IN ADDITION TO 44,023 DENTAL PROCEDURES PERFORMED ON STUDENTS. IT IS NOT RARE TO HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT ARRIVE AT MILTON HERSHEY AND HAVE THEIR FIRST TRIP TO THE DENTIST BE AT THE MHS CAMPUS CLINIC.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 2	FAMILY/BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP	SEVERAL OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS MEMBERS AND OFFICERS OF THE FILING ORGANIZATION ALSO SERVE AS DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS OF BUSINESS ENTITIES THAT ARE RELATED TO THIS FILING ORGANIZATION. OTHER THAN THEIR OVERLAPPING SERVICE ON RELATED COMPANY BOARDS, THEY HAVE NO FAMILY OR BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS WITH EACH OTHER. PLEASE SEE FORM 990, SCHEDULES J AND R FOR FURTHER INFORMATION.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A	ELECTION OF MEMBERS OF GOVERNING BODY	THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST HAVE A UNIQUE, SELF-PERPETUATING, INTERLOCKING AND INTEGRATED GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE. MR. AND MRS. HERSHEY ORGANIZED THE SCHOOL IN THE FORM OF A TRUST (THE "SCHOOL TRUST") CREATED UNDER AN ORIGINAL 1909 DEED OF TRUST THAT, AS AMENDED, STILL GOVERNS THE OPERATION OF THE SCHOOL. THE DEED OF TRUST SETS FORTH THE RESPECTIVE POWERS AND AUTHORITIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND INDIVIDUAL MANAGERS OF THE SCHOOL AND NAMES THE HERSHEY TRUST COMPANY ("HTC"), A STATE CHARTERED TRUST COMPANY, AS TRUSTEE FOR COMPENSATION OF NO MORE THAN $1,000 PER YEAR. UNDER THE DEED OF TRUST, THE TRUSTEE IS DIRECTED TO HOLD TITLE TO ALL SCHOOL PROPERTY AND ALL INVESTMENTS AND ASSETS THAT SUPPORT THE SCHOOL. THE INDIVIDUAL MANAGERS, IN TURN, ARE NOT PERMITTED TO HOLD SCHOOL ASSETS, BUT ARE OTHERWISE GENERALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR MANAGING THE SCHOOL, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO ADMISSIONS, THE PROGRAM OF EDUCATING AND FULL-TIME CARING FOR THE CHILDREN, AND EMPLOYMENT DECISIONS. AS REQUIRED UNDER THE DEED OF TRUST, THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS OF THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST ARE APPOINTED BY THE TRUSTEE FROM AMONG THE TRUSTEE'S OWN BOARD OF DIRECTORS. SINCE MR. HERSHEY'S DEATH IN 1945, ALL OF THE STOCK OF HTC HAS BEEN OWNED BY THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST. THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST'S 100% OWNERSHIP OF THE STOCK OF HTC HAS ENSURED A SELF-PERPETUATING, INTERLOCKING GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE FOR THE SCHOOL BECAUSE THE HTC STOCK CARRIES THE RIGHT TO ELECT THE DIRECTORS OF HTC AND IN TURN TO APPOINT THE BOARD OF MANAGERS OF THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST FROM AMONG HTC'S OWN BOARD OF DIRECTORS. THE SAME NINE INDIVIDUALS (AS OF 7/31/13) SERVE ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF HTC AND THE BOARD OF MANAGERS OF THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST.
