ExplanationThe Charter School is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

As of June 30, 2018, there were no income tax related accrued interest or penalties recognized in either the statement of financial position or the statement of activities. The Charter School files informational returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in the Minnesota state jurisdiction. U.S. federal returns and Minnesota returns for the prior three fiscal years are closed. No returns are currently under examination in any tax jurisdiction.ExplanationTxt
