        <ReturnReference>Description of Intended Use of Endowment Funds:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The Endowment Fund for Teachers will help teachers receive the salaries they deserve while allowing tuition increases to be kept to a minimum when fully funded. Although this funding of salaries will not be in effect for some years, it does mark the beginning of a concentrated effort to raise the millions of dollars necessary to make this a reality. The purpose of maintaining the value of the Fund is to allow for continued growth. The Endowment fund for Teachers is established by the board for donations contributed to Teacher Endowment Fund. -The Endowment Fund for Tuition Scholarship was established many years ago by a family who wished to express their gratitude for the program as their child was about to enter kindergarten. The fund's sole purpose is to enable families to receive the Child Educational Center's wide range of services when they otherwise wouldn't be able to attend the program. The endowment Fund for tuition assistance is restricted by donor.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Effective September 1, 2009, the Center adopted FASB ASC Topic No. 740, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." ASC Topic No. 740 ("ASC 740") clarifies the for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB Statements No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," and prescribes a recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Center has determined that the adoption of ASC 740 did not result in the recognition of any liability for unrecognized tax benefits.</Explanation>
