        <Explanation>The endowment funds are intended to be used to fund the general operations of the Milton Hershey School and School Trust. The endowment funds and other investment assets of the Milton Hershey School Trust (the "Assets") are invested for the long term because the school is to exist in perpetuity per the desire of Milton Hershey as stated in the Deed of Trust. The assets are invested to ensure that funds are available to meet current and future obligations of the school. The Board and the Trustee continually review the performance of the Assets. The Board also periodically reviews the process of investing the Assets with the assistance of the Trustee and third-party investment consultants. They have a disciplined process to review asset allocation, manager selection, and outside manager fees, as well as the detailed Investment Policy and Guidelines.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>Milton Hershey School &amp; School Trust Mission</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>Unable to have children of their own, Milton and Catherine Hershey signed the Deed of Trust establishing Milton Hershey School ("the 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. Today, the school serves about 1,800 students from pre-k to 12th grade, who come from families in social and financial need. The School provides a family-like community which holistically supports each student. Milton Hershey School and School Trust is unlike any other organization. It must operate under the terms of the Deed of Trust and provides a unique breadth of services including education and guidance, boarding, lodging, and clothing, as well as health services, recreation and social life activities to its students. Housing, food, clothing, dental and medical care are provided to all of the children served, at absolutely no financial cost to the children or their families. No tuition is charged, and families are not subjected to any fees. Students live in more than 140 student homes with 10-12 students of similar ages. A married houseparent couple lives in each home, and acts as surrogate parents to the students, providing supervision, comfort and counsel. In their senior year, the School students move in to Transitional Living apartments. In their senior year, students live together in buildings which house several two-bedroom apartments, and they are responsible for managing their money, cooking some of their own meals, and budgeting their time. The program was implemented to better prepare students for life after graduation. The School cares for its students 24-hours a day, and operates year-round, including holidays and during the summer. Because the School strives to prepare students for a successful future, every high school student can earn approximately $80,000 to use for postsecondary education. Milton Hershey School and School Trust is an integrated tax-exempt organization composed of the not-for-profit corporation, 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 the costs of administering the investments held in trust. Part III - Program Service Accomplishments: EDUCATION AND GUIDANCE: Milton Hershey School and School Trust provides for the education, physical, social, and psychological needs of its students. The School has a rigorous academic program which has received measurable results. Although students often come to the School with knowledge far below their grade-level, the dedicated staff help bridge that knowledge gap. Students perform quite well on the state standardized tests, and even outperform students from some of the top school districts in the state in some subject areas. In addition to academics, the School stresses career technical education, so that each student graduates equipped to enter the world of work. About 90 percent of 12th graders completed at least one state or national certification exam in their career/technical area. The School operates year-round, with more than 70 percent of its students attending during one or more summer weeks, and about 100 students staying on campus even during holiday breaks. A variety of programs are offered throughout the summer, providing academic and cultural enrichment for the children. BOARD, LODGING, AND CLOTHING: Students live in student homes with 10 to 12 children of similar ages and the same gender. They are provided nutritious meals and snacks. During the period covered by this report, the School's food services provided 2.5 million meals, using 66,000 gallons of milk, 53,000 pounds of ground beef, 29,000 dozen eggs, and 11,000 pounds of American cheese. In addition, each student receives a complete wardrobe, including everything from underwear and pajamas, to swimsuits and winter coats. The School's clothing center conducted 3,598 individual clothing fittings for students during this period. HEALTH SERVICES, RECREATION &amp; SOCIAL LIFE: All students receive regular physical and dental checkups from the School, as well as any other necessary health services. Last year, the School's dental professionals performed more than 30,500 procedures - from teeth cleanings to orthodontic work. There were more than 47,000 medical visits by students to the School's medical professionals, which include nurses, a physician and consulting medical specialists. In keeping with its concern for the well-being of the whole student, the School provides a vast number of recreational opportunities to its students. Those opportunities include organized sports activities, visual and performing arts opportunities, scouting programs, academic organizations, and clubs centered on hobbies. In all, the School offers more than 100 extracurricular activities and clubs.

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 eight individuals serve on the Board of Directors of HTC and the Board of Managers of the Milton Hershey School and School Trust.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>CONFLICT OF INTEREST</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>The Board of Managers, Officers and key employees of the Milton Hershey School and School Trust have a fiduciary relationship with the Milton Hershey School and School Trust which requires that they act in good faith with regard to the Milton Hershey School and School Trust's best interests. It is essential in fulfilling their duties that they apply the highest moral, legal, and ethical standards in their conduct and business relationships. The Milton Hershey School and Hershey Trust Company, trustee for the Milton Hershey School Trust, have written conflict of interest policies which are intended to permit the Milton Hershey School and School Trust and its Managers, Officers and other key employees to identify, evaluate and address any conflict of interest that might call into question this fiduciary duty to the Milton Hershey School and School Trust. The conflict of interest policy covering the Managers of the Milton Hershey School and School Trust and the directors of Hershey Trust Company is documented in their governance guidelines manual. The conflict of interest policy covering Officers and other key employees of Milton Hershey School and School Trust is documented in Milton Hershey School and School Trust's Conflict of Interest policy. The conflict of interest policy covering Officers and other key employees of Hershey Trust Company, Trustee for Milton Hershey School and School Trust, is documented in Hershey Trust Company's ethical standards, conflict of interest, and code of conduct sections of its policy manuals. Each Manager, Director, Officer and key employee is required to avoid all activity that could create a conflict of interest or even give an appearance of a conflict of interest. Any conflicts of interest are to be reported as soon as practical after they become aware of such a conflict. Annually each Manager, Director, Officer and key employee is required to complete an Annual Statement of Disclosure. The forms identify vendors, investments, other board memberships, and family members that could give rise to conflicts of interest. The statements are reviewed by the General Counsel, the Senior Director-Finance and purchasing department personnel at the Milton Hershey School, as well as the Vice President, Finance, and accounting personnel at Hershey Trust Company in order for them to be aware of activities that could give rise to conflicts of interest. Potential conflicts of interest related to managers, directors, officers and key employees are brought to the attention of the President of Milton Hershey School or the President or compliance officer of Hershey Trust Company. The relevant President (or his designee) determines the corrective measure, if any, to be taken to resolve the conflict, or will impose appropriate restrictions, if any, on the person with the conflict. For conflicts of interest involving the Presidents or managers/directors, the matter would be discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Hershey Trust Company or the board of managers of the Milton Hershey School. The Joint Audit Committee, in consultation with the other board members, excluding such conflicted person, has the final approval of any recommended corrective measures or imposed restrictions.</Explanation>

        <ReturnReference>COMPENSATION PROCESS</ReturnReference>
        <Explanation>An independent compensation consultant evaluates and compares the compensation of the officers and senior directors of Milton Hershey School and School Trust to similarly qualified persons in functionally comparable positions at similarly situated organizations to determine that it is fair and reasonable. This process occurs at the initial hire of the officer/senior director and at regular intervals thereafter, but not less frequently than every five years. The compensation information is reviewed and approved by the Board of Managers, the governing body of the Milton Hershey School, who do not have any conflict of interest with respect to the compensation arrangements of the officers and senior directors. The review of the compensation of the officers and senior directors, including detail on the deliberations and decisions, is contemporaneously documented within the minutes from the Board meeting. A file with position descriptions, resumes of officers and senior directors, the report of the independent compensation consultant and a copy of the applicable board minutes is maintained by the Milton Hershey School and School Trust. The compensation of the officers and key employees of Hershey Trust Company, Trustee of Milton Hershey School and School Trust is determined by periodic review (generally, at least every 3 years) by third party compensation consultants to determine it is fair and reasonable. The compensation of the statutory officers (President, Secretary, and Treasurer) and also the Compliance Officer is fixed by the Board of Directors of Hershey Trust Company in accordance with Section 5 of its bylaws. The President and Managing Director of Hershey Trust Company approves compensation of the other officers and key employees and reports this compensation to the Board of Directors or a designated committee of the Board of Directors as any changes are made. The members of the Board of Managers of Milton Hershey School and School Trust do not receive any direct compensation from Milton Hershey School and School Trust. The Managers receive compensation from Hershey Trust Company as directors of the Trust Company in accordance with Section 16 of its bylaws. The compensation is reviewed at least every three years by nationally recognized third party compensation consultants. Independent counsel opines on the compensation process for determining compensation of officers, as appropriate, that is in accordance with the "rebuttable presumption of reasonableness" procedures set out in the regulations for section 4958 of the Internal Revenue Code.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>Although not technically lobbying, the Milton Hershey School and School Trust paid $76,523 during the reporting period to a consultant to maintain contact with local legislators for zoning and transportation issues as well as for security services. The Hershey Trust Company, a for-profit corporation wholly owned by the Milton Hershey School and School Trust, paid a consultant $81,656 during the reporting period for consulting on transportation issues. Of this amount, $42,656 was for Pennsylvania lobbying services. Hershey Trust Company, Hershey Entertainment &amp; Resorts Company, and The Hershey Company paid a consultant $139,088 during the reporting period for consulting on transportation issues. Of this amount, $46,750 was for Federal lobbying services. Hershey Entertainment &amp; Resorts Company, a for-profit corporation wholly owned by the Milton Hershey School and School Trust, had state lobbying expenses of $126,775 during the reporting period. Their political action committee made disbursements of $8,750 during the reporting period. The Hershey Company, a for-profit corporation, files quarterly lobbyist disclosure reports that detail the issues being lobbied and the dollar value of time dedicated to each reportable issue. These reports are filed as follows: United States House of Representatives (quarterly) ID # 3127490000 United States Senate (quarterly) ID # 18103-12 Pennsylvania Department of State (quarterly) P-00745; L-00972 Filed reports represent expenditures relating to both internal and external resources. SCHEDULE I, PART I, QUESTION 2 GRANTS &amp; ASSISTANCE TO INDIVIDUALS - MONITORING THE USE OF GRANT FUNDS The Continuing Education Scholarship (CES) has been established to provide scholarship assistance to eligible Milton Hershey School graduates pursuing full-time study towards an accredited, classroom-based undergraduate program of at least nine months in length that is intended to lead to a diploma, certificate or degree from a U.S. institution. The CES program supplements a student's post-secondary costs by helping to pay for STANDARD full-time tuition, fees, room and board costs (and possibly a basic college health insurance plan) not covered by other forms of gift aid at accredited U.S. schools. The Milton Hershey School, through CES Office staff, utilizes a combination of the following "source documents" to validate scholarship eligibility and college cost &amp; financial aid data: college academic transcripts/grades, standardized cost and aid assessment form that is completed by the Institution's Financial Aid Office (Release Form), college bills, signed copies of leases/rental agreements, receipts, Degree Completion Evaluations, and other documentation as needed. SCHEDULE I, PART III GRANTS &amp; ASSISTANCE TO INDIVIDUALS IN THE U.S. The Milton Hershey School maintains a continuing education scholarship program for students who graduated prior to and including the spring of 2004, under which grants are made to students to pursue postsecondary education. The grants under this program will cover all eligible continuing education expenses that exceed grant aid from all sources and a $2,000 annual contribution by the student. The payment of the full amount of these grants is dependent upon the student's annual academic performance and certain other conditions. A liability is established for the estimated amounts to be paid upon granting of the scholarship. Significant assumptions in determining the liability for this program include participation rates, discount rates, and college tuition inflation rates, and are based on historical trends of the program. The Milton Hershey School maintains a continuing education scholarship program for students graduating after the spring of 2004, where scholarship credits are earned gradually each year of high school. The maximum award for the graduating class of 2010 will be $79,000. The maximum award may be increased every year to match the average U.S. college inflation rate. The earning of the scholarship award is dependent on the students' annual academic performance and certain other conditions. Upon inception of this program, current high school students were awarded the scholarship credit for grades previously completed. Students that had graduated in or prior to the spring of 2004 were not affected by the new policy. Significant assumptions in determining the liability for this program include participation and discount rates. The expense recognized for the continuing education programs described above was $2,762,757, and $7,780,835 during the years ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and is included in continuing education programs on the statement of activities of the Milton Hershey School and School Trust financial statements. The amount reported covers the 479 students currently receiving continuing education scholarships as well as the 822 students earning credits toward their future scholarships. Schedule I, Part III, column (c): The amount reported in column (c) "Amount of cash grant" consists of $4,587,684 of cash grants paid during the year, reduced by $1,824,927 which represents a reduction in the tuition accrual for grants to be paid in future years. The net of these amounts totals $2,762,757.</Explanation>
