| Desc | LOWELL SCHOOL FOSTERS INTELLECTUAL AND EMOTIONAL SELF-RELIANCE, WITH A GUIDING VALUE OF RESPECT FOR EACH OTHER. THIS APPROACH PROVIDES THE FOUNDATION FOR CHILDREN TO BE HIGHLY MOTIVATED LEARNERS WITH A STRONG SENSE OF SELF-WORTH AND EFFICACY.LOWELL SCHOOL PROMOTES ACTIVE, COLLABORATIVE LEARNING WITH AN EMPHASIS ON BUILDING CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING AND DEVELOPING STRONG CREATIVE, CRITICAL, AND ANALYTICAL THINKING. CAREFULLY DESIGNED LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND CURRICULA ARE INTEGRATED ACROSS SUBJECTS, DRAW ON POWERFUL, RELEVANT CONTENT AND STUDENT INTERESTS, AND SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNAL MOTIVATION AND A STRONG VOICE.LEARNING AT LOWELL SCHOOL IS RIGOROUS: THINKING IS EMPHASIZED OVER ROTE LEARNING, AND STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO USE THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS CREATIVELY AND PRACTICALLY.

IN THIS WAY, LOWELL SCHOOL PREPARES STUDENTS TO BE INNOVATORS AND ACHIEVERS WHO HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY, SKILLS, AND INCLINATION TO SOLVE PROBLEMS NEW AND OLD.LOWELL SCHOOL IS AN INTENTIONALLY DIVERSE SCHOOL. THIS IS ESSENTIAL IN PREPARING STUDENTS FOR A FUTURE THAT WILL DEMAND DEEP MULTICULTURAL UNDERSTANDING, STRONG COLLABORATIVE SKILLS, AND COMMITMENT TO ONE'S LOCAL COMMUNITY AND THE LARGER WORLD. AT LOWELL SCHOOL, WE BELIEVE THAT AN INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTES TO INTELLECTUAL STIMULATION AND NURTURES AN INQUISITIVE AND OPEN MIND. | Desc |

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 4 | DURING THE YEAR, THE ORGANIZATION ADOPTED AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS TO REFLECT UPDATES TO ITS GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE AND BOARD OPERATIONS. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES INCLUDED: (1) REMOVAL OF THE PARENT ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT AS AN EX OFFICIO VOTING TRUSTEE AND CONVERSION OF THE HEAD OF SCHOOL POSITION FROM AN EX OFFICIO VOTING TRUSTEE TO AN EX OFFICIO NON-VOTING TRUSTEE; (2) REVISION OF TRUSTEE TERM LIMITS AND SERVICE REQUIREMENTS; (3) ELIMINATION OF PROXY VOTING BY TRUSTEES; (4) RESTRUCTURING OF BOARD COMMITTEES, INCLUDING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE WITH A FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY COMMITTEE, CREATION OF SEPARATE INVESTMENT AND AUDIT COMMITTEES, REPLACEMENT OF THE COMMITTEE ON TRUSTEES WITH A GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE, AND EXPANSION OF THE DIVERSITY COMMITTEE INTO A DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, AND BELONGING (DEIB) COMMITTEE; AND (5) ADDITION OF GOVERNANCE PROVISIONS RELATED TO CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, INTERESTED-PERSON LIMITATIONS, AND ENHANCED FINANCIAL OVERSIGHT PROCEDURES. THE AMENDED BYLAWS ALSO UPDATED PROVISIONS RELATING TO BOARD MEETINGS, OFFICER TERMS, HEAD OF SCHOOL GOVERNANCE, AND COMMITTEE RESPONSIBILITIES |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 8B | THE BOARD EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE IS THE ONLY COMMITTEE WITH AUTHORITY TO ACT ON BEHALF OF THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES. CONTEMPORANEOUS DOCUMENTATION IS NOT CURRENTLY REQUIRED FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETINGS. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B | THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES IS FAIRLY LARGE WITH UP TO 30 MEMBERS PREDOMINANTLY COMPRISED OF CURRENT PARENTS WHO KNOW EACH OTHER PERSONALLY AS WELL AS IN THEIR ROLE AS TRUSTEES OF LOWELL SCHOOL. BECAUSE THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THESE TRUSTEES AND LOWELL SCHOOL'S MAJOR DONORS ARE OFTEN PERSONAL THERE IS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF INFORMATION ABOUT FAMILY DONATIONS THAT IS PREFERRED TO REMAIN PRIVATE. FOR THIS REASON, THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECEIVES THE "PUBLIC DISCLOSURE" VERSION OF THE FEDERAL FORM 990 TO REVIEW PRIOR TO FILING THE RETURN WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. ALL BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE INFORMED EACH YEAR THAT THE COMPLETE VERSION OF THE FEDERAL FORM 990, INCLUDING DONOR INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE TO REVIEW IN LOWELL SCHOOL'S BUSINESS OFFICE ANY TIME THEY WISH TO REVIEW IT. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C | THROUGH THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ORIENTATION DONE AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH ACADEMIC YEAR, A FULL EXPLANATION OF THIS POLICY IS REVIEWED. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES IS ALSO MADE UP OF MANY CURRENT PARENTS AND THIS PERSPECTIVE ALSO BRINGS WITH IT A CONSTANT OVERSIGHT OF THE APPROPRIATENESS OF HOW BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEMBERS ARE NOT ABUSING OR TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THEIR ROLE AS TRUSTEES. FINALLY, LOWELL SCHOOL HAS LEGAL COUNSEL WHO IS QUITE VIGILANT AROUND THESE ISSUES. KEY EMPLOYEES ARE MADE AWARE OF THE CONFLICT-OF-INTEREST POLICY ON AN ANNUAL BASIS DURING THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ORIENTATION AND ARE HELD TO THE SAME STANDARD AS TRUSTEES TO ASSURE THEY ARE NOT ABUSING OR TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THEIR ROLE AS A KEY EMPLOYEE. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15A | THE HEAD SUPPORT AND REVIEW COMMITTEE ANNUALLY REVIEWS THE HEAD OF SCHOOL'S COMPENSATION PACKAGE AND UTILIZES BOTH LOCAL COMPARATIVE STATISTICS PROVIDED BY THE ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS OF GREATER WASHINGTON (AISGW) AND THE ASSOCIATION OF MARYLAND SCHOOLS (AIMS) AND NATIONAL STATISTICS PROVIDED BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS (NAIS) BASED ON SIZE OF SCHOOL, AND YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. A COMPENSATION PACKAGE IS THEN PUT INTO PLACE FOR THE HEAD OF SCHOOL. THE FULL BOARD OF TRUSTEES DOES NOT VOTE ON THIS PARTICULAR COMPENSATION, BUT DOES VOTE FOR AN ANNUAL BUDGET EACH YEAR, WHICH INCORPORATES THIS COMPENSATION PACKAGE. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 | 'THE GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE SCHOOL ARE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST FOR THE SAME PERIOD OF DISCLOSURE AS SET FORTH IN IRC 6104(D). |
| FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C: | THE PROCESS HAS NOT CHANGED FROM THE PRIOR YEAR. |
