STAYING TRUE TO OUR EDUCATIONAL MODEL, THE SCHOOL WAS ABLE TO MEET OUR GOAL OF HAVING 93% OF STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN A PUBLIC SHOWCASE OF THEIR PLACE-BASED LEARNING PROJECTS. STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN ONE OR TWO PLACE-BASED UNITS WITH A DRIVING QUESTION CENTERED AROUND AN ISSUE THAT AFFECTS THEM OR THEIR COMMUNITY. TEACHERS BROUGHT IN GUEST SPEAKERS, ORGANIZED FIELD TRIPS AND PROVIDED LOTS OF HANDS ON LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO OBSERVE, QUESTION, PROBLEM SOLVE AND COLLABORATE WITH OTHERS. AT THE END OF EACH PRESENTATION, STUDENTS WERE ABLE TO NOTE THEIR PROGRESS BASED ON A RUBRIC THAT ASSESSED THEIR CONTENT KNOWLEDGE, ORGANIZATION OF PRESENTED MATERIALS AND SPEAKING VOICE. 4071322 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 6 0 55 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 8 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 IN X CENTER FOR INNOVATIVE EDUCATION SOLUTION 3122598093 11208 HARRISTON DRIVE FISHERS IN 46037 MORGAN GALBRETH CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 ERIN HUNTINGTON VICE CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 SCOTT BILYOU TREASURER 1.50 X X 0 0 0 MARK GODFREY SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 RYAN LEAGRE GENERAL MEMBER 1.50 X 0 0 0 SERIA WALTON GENERAL MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DEMETRIUS WARREN GENERAL MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHIDINMA UCHENDU GENERAL MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 NIGENA LIVINGSTON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 80.00 X 140000 0 10960 THEO BRANNUM CHIEF OPERATIONS OFFICER 80.00 X 100000 0 8973 240000 0 19933 1 0 1 0 0 6775039 79856 6854895 59 59 123022 -123022 -123022 -123022 OTHER INCOME 900099 3852 3852 3852 6735784 3852 0 -122963 X 339351 243080 96271 2975554 2103437 872117 9221 7760 1461 153434 153434 241228 178711 62517 32804 32804 632788 388232 244556 660 660 169486 147975 21511 70750 70750 229622 229622 4547 4547 67712 67712 42635 42635 FOOD COSTS 283323 283323 STAFF DEVELOPMENT AND R 126333 126333 DUES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS 26354 26354 FIELD TRIPS 23329 23329 4989 4989 5434120 4071322 1362798 0 623287 1651624 331706 331766 289648 740150 12399 0 0 190734 0 1447774 2723540 72867 46969 72867 46969 X 1374907 2676571 1374907 2676571 1447774 2723540 1301664 0 X X 0 1 X 1 1 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 X 8929424 2070618 123022 2193640 6735784 0 6735784 7627760 2070618 123022 2193640 5434120 0 5434120 PART X, LINE 2: PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS REQUIRE THE SCHOOL TO RECOGNIZE A TAX LIABILITY ONLY IF IT IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THE TAX POSITION WOULD BE SUSTAINED IN A TAX EXAMINATION, WITH A TAX EXAMINATION BEING PRESUMED TO OCCUR.
