We raise funds through family-oriented events, membership drives, and community partnerships, and use these funds to provide classroom resources, sponsor educational programs, and organize enrichment activities. All activities are conducted exclusively for charitable and educational purposes, with no part of the organization's net earnings benefiting any private individual. | ExplanationTxt |

Program-related expenses included costs associated with grade-level assemblies, 4th Grade year-end activities, Family Fun Nights, Field Day, STEAM enrichment events, student recess equipment, student folders, student and staff shirts, student recognition programs (such as Student Grams), book vending machine support, and various school and community events. Additional program support included teacher supply reimbursements, general teacher classroom support, and other student-focused activities. Operating and administrative expenses included liability insurance, processing and technology fees, hospitality costs for volunteers and school support activities, decorating expenses for school events, and other miscellaneous expenses necessary for the overall operation and management of the organization.

| Explanation | This was our organization's first year filing Form 990-EZ instead of the Form 990-N. Because the 990-EZ requires more detailed financial reporting, we needed additional time to analyze our records to ensure the information was complete and accurate. Once we determined that more time was required, we submitted the extension request. The delay resulted from our effort to provide a correct and thorough filing, and we have taken steps to ensure timely extensions and filings in the future. | ExplanationTxt |
