Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8bThere are no other committees that can act on behalf of the Board.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The full Board does a general review of the Form 990 and the audit committee does a thorough review prior to filing with the Internal Revenue Service.
Through the Board orientation done at the beginning of each academic year, a full explanation of this policy is reviewed. The Board is also made up of many current parents and this perspective also brings with it a constant oversight of the appropriateness of how Board members are not abusing or taking advantage of their role as Trustees. Finally, the School has legal counsel who is quite vigilant around these issues. Key employees are made aware of the conflict of interest policy on an annual basis during the board orientation and are held to the same standard as Trustees to assure they are not abusing or taking advantage of their role as a key employee.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c
The Head Support and Review Committee annually reviews the Head's compensation package, and utilizes both local comparative statistics provided by the Association of Independent Schools of Greater Washington (AISGW) and The Association of Maryland Schools (AIMS) and national statistics provided by The National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) based on size of school, and years of experience. A compensation package is then put into place for the Head of School. The full Board does not vote on this particular compensation, but does vote for an annual budget each year, which obviously incorporates this compensation package. There are no other individuals who would meet the criteria for Officer or key employee.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a
The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19
