In the case of high impact grants that fund more than one school, each school's principal must approve the application. The grants go before an allocations committee made up of foundation board members and volunteers. Grants are sorted by grant category and are then ranked and funded by the position they are ranked. The board approves all final grants. Teachers have final grant report forms which must demonstrate the outcomes and show how the funds were spent. Any deviation of funds spent must first be approved by the Foundation. In some cases, there are site visits from the Foundation. Scholarships are also reviewed and awarded by the scholarship committee which includes two representatives from the district. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The form 990 will be reviewed by the executive committee prior to filing. A copy of the 990 will be provided to all board members for comments and questions prior to filing. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The Foundation regularly and consistently monitors and enforces compliance with the written conflict of interest policy as a part of board meetings and retreats. Follow up with individual board members is completed as necessary. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a The Foundation's executive committee performs an annual review of the Foundation's staff and recommends an appropriate level of compensation based upon performance and comparable data. This process is approved and documented in the Foundations's minutes. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 The Foundation's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available for public inspection at the Foundation's office.
