It serves children ages 3-5 years who have been identified as being unsuccessful in the typical classroom due to behavior but are ineligible for other school interventions (ex. IEP). Program participants are often in foster care, have been recently adopted, or have been referred by their school counselor. Children will participate in play-base experiences three times a week for 3 hours in an early childhood setting with three teachers. Activities will be carefully planned to bring organization to the brain through patterned, repetitive, rhythmic touch, sound, and movement. Through these experiential lessons, students will increase academic skills and develop a sense of joy and hope for the future. 0 0 0 195894 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 0 1 10 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 OK X Jill Andrews 9187069322 10026-A S Mingo Rd 279 Tulsa OK 74133 Barbara Sorrels CEO and Founder 50 X 125000 0 0 Pam Crookedacre Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Jan Miller Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Mike Henry Board Member 1 0 X 0 0 0 Nathan Keltner President 2 0 X 0 0 0 Jim Beasley Treasurer 1 0 X 0 0 0 125000 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 86974 0 86974 Professional Development 611430 125445 125445 0 0 Fellowship 611430 97000 97000 0 0 Preschool 624410 33025 33025 0 0 0 0 0 0 255470 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 342444 255470 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 205861 145721 34179 25961 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 17110 11110 4014 1986 8407 8407 0 0 51 0 51 0 3837 0 3837 0 0 0 0 0 3000 3000 0 0 0 0 23056 2000 0 21056 0 0 0 0 11599 1470 8345 1784 10523 1428 9095 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6300 5415 885 0 0 0 0 0 3595 0 3595 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2380 0 2380 0 Employee Meals 281 281 0 0 Class Participant Meals 5281 5281 0 0 Conference & Meetings 14282 14269 13 Charitable Donation 612 512 100 0 316175 195894 66494 53787 185635 154555 0 0 0 0 0 52746 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 185635 207301 4771 4188 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 29545 25525 0 34316 29713 X 151319 177588 0 0 151319 177588 185635 207301 26269 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 158647 192964 129978 109869 86974 678432 180956 204965 255470 641391 158647 192964 310934 314834 342444 1319823 1319823 158647 192964 310934 314834 342444 1319823 1 1 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 1a There were no executive committees or similar committees in 2023 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b Bookeeper provided a draft copy of F990, Sch A, Sch B, and Sch O to President, Treasurer, and CEO to comment prior to submitting Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Disclosure of any conflicts of interest and the formal process for filling out all conflict of interest forms for the year was discussed at 2023 board meetings.
