We develop confident and compassionate children within our welcoming, faith-based community. false false 2150649 29894 2268237 St. Petersburg Primary School (SPPS) serves families who are seeking a faith-based primary school education for their children. Our low student-teacher ratios and our experienced faculty facilitate exploration, curiosity and problem solving. In our preschool program, children learn to work independently as well as cooperatively with their peers, while developing strong character traits such as empathy, perseverance and responsibility. Early literacy and mathematics foundations, as well as each childs social and emptional growth, are cultivated through a play-based, thematic curriculum. In our elementary program, students expand their skills as they explore engaging and complex units of study with an emphasis on the learning process, rather than simply memorizing content. Play-based learning is active and interactive, giving students opportunities to explore their acquired knowledge through hands-on, engaging projects. Our students become independent thinkers who know how to seek knowledge, question and interpret it, and develop conclusions that are evidence-based. Character development continues into our elementary program, expanding upon the social-emotional skills learned in preschool to include generosity, respect and appreciation for yourself and others, diligence, global citizenship, personal reflection, and a growth mindset. Cultivating a strong sense of community within our school is one of our core values. Parent Socials, Family Movie Night, Monthly Chapel Services, Playtime on the Playground, Halloween Costume Parade, and our Annual Art Show are a few of the ways our community stays strong and connected. Parent involvement is encouraged through active participation in school events, fundraisers, field trips, holiday parties and more. 2150649 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true false true true false true true false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 64 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X Ashley Hardy 7278945889 700 N Shore Drive NE 108 Saint Petersburg FL 33701 Brandon Rutstein President 3.00 X 0 0 0 Elizabeth Loh Vice President 3.00 X 0 0 0 David Schintzius Treasurer 3.00 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Gonzalez Secretary 2.00 X 0 0 0 Alais Griffin Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nick Falcone Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Greg Helck Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Audrey McCarty Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rachael Somerman Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ashley Hardy Head of School 40.00 X 93061 0 600 93061 0 600 0 false false false 0 116719 128874 245593 Tuition 611710 1761242 0 0 After School and Summer Care 611710 506995 0 0 2268237 30083 0 30083 13745 116719 25425 -11680 0 -11680 Miscellaneous Revenue 900099 15940 15940 0 0 15940 2548173 2284177 0 18403 29894 29894 103874 92871 11003 0 1589812 1421412 168400 0 54362 45664 8698 0 137715 115681 22034 0 18700 0 18700 0 7615 0 7615 0 20613 20613 0 0 19896 16713 3183 0 41236 34638 6598 0 98778 82974 15804 0 468 0 468 0 58693 58693 0 0 37541 31534 6007 0 Continuing Education 9004 9004 0 0 Refreshments/Snacks/Consumables 1687 1417 270 0 Curriculum 25675 25675 0 0 Equipment/Furniture 13032 10947 2085 0 211829 152919 58910 0 2480424 2150649 329775 0 504984 992044 3100 33873 39731 302729 170217 153706 132512 526960 551439 262144 141097 1484767 1856823 57671 31418 447833 897538 259022 139877 764526 1068833 X 720241 787990 720241 787990 1484767 1856823 67749 X false true X true false X 0 0 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 184574 107115 77459 118155 63102 55053 132512 Other asset 6336 Right of use asset 134761 141097 X 2548173 2548173 2548173 2480424 2480424 2480424 Pt X, Line 2 The School is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and has been determined not to be a private foundation within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Qualifications for these scholarships are based on the applicants family income, assets, and overall financial situation. Applicants are required to complete a free application that collects family information which is used to determine the expected family contribution (EFC). Scholarships are then awarded to students with lower EFCs, indicating a greater need for financial assistance. Students are expected to attend at least 85% of the school year. SPPS monitors daily attendance, and the families are sent a quarterly update on the students total days absent. If the students attendance drops below 85%, it may result in the loss of the scholarship. Pt VI, Line 11b A complete copy of the Form 990 is reviewed with the Head of School and Audit Committee. A copy of the 990, excluding Schedule B - Schedule of Contributors, is shared with the full Board of Directors for review before it is filed. Pt VI, Line 12c The Conflict of Interest Policy is shared with the Board and the Board receives annual training on the policy requirements.

In the event of a potential conflict of interest, the interested party must inform the Head of School or Chair of the Audit Committee and is precluded from any discussion or vote on the potential conflict situation. Pt VI, Line 15a Compensation for the Head of School is determined by the Board of Directors. The Board relies upon comparability data, including data from Form 990s and compensation data from the Florida Council of Independent Schools.
