Explanation	MAINTAINING COLLECTIONS OF ART, HISTORICAL TREASURES, OR SIMILAR ASSETS THE ORGANIZATION ELECTED, AS PERMITTED UNDER SFAS 116, NOT TO REPORT IN ITS REVENUE STATEMENT AND BALANCE SHEET WORKS OF ART, HISTORICAL TREASURES, OR OTHER SIMILAR ASSETS HELD FOR PUBLIC EXHIBITION, EDUCATION OR RESEARCH IN FURTHERANCE OF PUBLIC SERVICE. THE DEPARTMENT OF SCHOOL HISTORY AND THE MHS HERITAGE CENTER AT KINDERHAUS PROVIDE FOR THE CARE AND MANAGEMENT OF THE HISTORICAL ASSETS OF THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL COMMUNITY. THE HISTORICAL ASSETS (COLLECTION) CONSIST OF ARCHIVAL RECORDS AND DOCUMENTS, THREE DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS, INTERPRETIVE EXHIBITS, AND HISTORICAL CAMPUS BUILDINGS WHICH HELP TO DOCUMENT THE LIVES AND VALUES OF MILTON AND CATHERINE HERSHEY AS FOUNDERS OF OUR SCHOOL, THE HISTORY AND TRADITIONS OF THE SCHOOL AS AN INSTITUTION, AND THE STORIES OF THE STUDENTS, STAFF, AND ALUMNI WHO MAKE UP THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY. EXCLUDED FROM THIS MANDATE ARE LEGAL BOARD RECORDS, STUDENT RECORDS, AND ALUMNI RECORDS. SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4 TRUST FUNDS AS MANDATED BY MILTON HERSHEY'S DEED OF TRUST, THE TRUST FUNDS ARE USED TO OPERATE THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND MANAGE THE SCHOOL TRUST IN PERPETUITY. THE SCHOOL HAS MADE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF ITS STUDENTS FOR OVER 100 YEARS. IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TO CHANGE LIVES FOR THE NEXT 100 YEARS AND BEYOND, THE TRUST FUNDS AND OTHER ASSETS OF THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL TRUST (THE "ASSETS") ARE INVESTED FOR THE LONG TERM. DOING SO HELPS TO ENSURE FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO MEET CURRENT AND FUTURE OBLIGATIONS OF MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL. THE BOARD AND THE TRUSTEE, WITH ASSISTANCE FROM THIRD-PARTY INVESTMENT CONSULTANTS, CONTINUALLY REVIEW THE PERFORMANCE OF THE ASSETS AND INVESTMENT DECISIONS. STRICT INVESTMENT GUIDELINES GOVERN A DISCIPLINED PROCESS FOR ASSET ALLOCATION, MANAGER SELECTION AND REVIEW OF MANAGEMENT FEES. SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2 FIN 48 FOOTNOTE TAX POSITIONS ARE RECOGNIZED OR DERECOGNIZED BASED ON A "MORE-LIKELY THAN-NOT" THRESHOLD FOR POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN. THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST'S ACCOUNTING POLICY FOR EVALUATING UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS IS THAT RECOGNIZED INCOME TAX POSITIONS ARE MEASURED AT THE LARGEST AMOUNT THAT IS GREATER THAN 50% LIKELY OF BEING REALIZED. THE MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST DOES NOT BELIEVE THERE ARE ANY UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS OR LIABILITIES THAT SHOULD BE RECORDED.

Explanation	TRAVEL FOR COMPANIONS SPOUSE/DEPENDENT TRAVEL: SPOUSES AND CHILDREN OF BOARD MEMBERS MAY BE INVITED TO ATTEND GRADUATION AND THE ANNUAL BOARD RETREAT AT THE DISCRETION OF THE SCHOOL OR TRUST COMPANY. IF A SPOUSE OR DEPENDENT ACCOMPANIES A BOARD MANAGER/DIRECTOR TO THE ANNUAL RETREAT, ALL CHARGES RELATED TO THE SPOUSE OR CHILD ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANAGER/DIRECTOR. IF A SPOUSE OR DEPENDENT ATTENDS GRADUATION WEEKEND EVENTS, THE COST OF MEALS, LODGING AND TRAVEL WILL BE PAID BY THE TRUST COMPANY AND REPORTED AS TAXABLE INCOME TO THE MANAGER/DIRECTOR. ORDINARILY, TRUST COMPANY STAFF WILL MAKE ALL TRAVEL AND LODGING ARRANGEMENTS. REIMBURSEMENT WILL ONLY BE MADE FOR THE COST OF COACH AIRFARE. ALL REQUESTS FOR EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY ORIGINAL RECEIPTS AND MUST BE SUBMITTED WITHIN 60 DAYS OF THE DATE ON WHICH THE EXPENSES WERE INCURRED. ADEQUATE DESCRIPTIONS INCLUDING THE DATE, PURPOSE, AND INDIVIDUALS ENTERTAINED MUST ALSO BE INCLUDED. SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 1A Housing Allowance or Residence for Personal Use The President of Milton Hershey School is provided with a residence on campus for both public and personal use. The Presidents employment contract includes provisions which require hosting both internal and external events on behalf of the School at the provided home. The value of these benefits (fair market value of rental) plus operating costs are nontaxable benefits. Certain Milton Hershey School executives, who serve on the Schools Crisis Response Command and provide leadership to both School operations and within the community of Hershey, are asked to live within 5 miles of the School and are provided with a housing allowance of $15,457 per year, which is included in reportable compensation and is taxable to the employee. Health Club Dues All employees of the Milton Hershey School are eligible for reimbursement of health club dues not to exceed $120 per annum for A single membership and $240 for a family membership. SCHEDULE J Reportable Compensation Mr. and Mrs. Hershey organized the Milton Hershey School ("the School") in the form of a trust ("School Trust") created under an original 1909 Deed of Trust that, as amended, still governs the operation of the School. The Deed of Trust sets forth the respective powers and authorities of the trustee and Managers of the School, names the Hershey Trust Company, a state-chartered trust company, as trustee for compensation of no more than $1,000 per year and provides for the trustee to appoint the individual Managers of the School from its own Board of Directors. The Managers subsequently incorporated. That corporation, acting as manager under the deed of trust, together with the School Trust are the components of the integrated tax-exempt organization, the Milton Hershey School and School Trust (EIN: 23-1353340). Mr. Hershey created the same structure for his other charity, The M.S. Hershey Foundation (EIN: 23-6242734). As a result of the structure created by Mr. Hershey, Hershey Trust Company: (A) serves as trustee for the Milton Hershey School & School Trust (administration of which trust includes responsibility for (1) The Hershey Company, a Fortune 500 company; (2) Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Company, a $590 million resort and entertainment company; (3) an actively managed portfolio of approximately $4.7 billion in securities and other investments; and (4) approximately 10,000 acres of real estate); and (B) serves as trustee for the $31.4 million M.S. Hershey Foundation Trust. The compensation of Board members serving on the boards of any of the related for-profit entities (Hershey Trust Company, Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Company and The Hershey Company) is commensurate with their responsibilities with respect to the relevant for-profit entity. The following information details the compensation arrangements of the Board of Managers who are compensated by related for-profit entities.

FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 & FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1	MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL & SCHOOL TRUST MISSION Unable to have children of their own, Milton and Catherine Hershey signed the Deed of Trust establishing Milton Hershey School in 1909. For more than 100 years, the mission of the School has remained the same-to provide a nurturing home and school to children in need. MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL SERVES AS A HOME AND SCHOOL FOR APPROXIMATELY 2,024 STUDENTS IN GRADES PRE-K THROUGH 12. THE SCHOOL AIMS TO PROVIDE EACH OF THEM WITH AMAZING OPPORTUNITIES FOR LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM. OUR PROGRAMS TAKE A WHOLE CHILD APPROACH AND REMAIN TRUE TO OUR DEED OF TRUST, AS WE WORK EVERY DAY TO NURTURE AND EDUCATE CHILDREN SO THEY CAN LEAD FULFILLING AND PRODUCTIVE LIVES. STUDENTS LIVE IN 173 HOMES ACROSS CAMPUS. THESE STUDENT HOMES ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENTS FOR 8-12 STUDENTS OF SIMILAR AGES AND THE SAME GENDER, UP UNTIL THEIR SENIOR YEAR. HEALTHY LIVING AND PERSONAL WELLNESS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE CURRICULUM AT ALL GRADE LEVELS, AND STUDENTS RECEIVE MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE AT NO COST TO THEIR FAMILIES. STUDENT GROWTH AND LEARNING IS FORTIFIED BY FOCUSING NOT ONLY ON INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT, BUT ALSO ON EMOTIONAL, SOCIAL, AND SPIRITUAL ENRICHMENT. CHILDREN AT MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL RECEIVE A PREMIER EDUCATION, WITH SMALL CLASS SIZES AVERAGING 15 STUDENTS. THEY ALSO HAVE ACCESS TO CAREER/TECHNICAL AND EXTRACURRICULAR OPPORTUNITIES UNOBTAINABLE IN THEIR HOME COMMUNITIES. THE SCHOOL PROVIDES CHILDREN WITH VALUABLE NURTURING RELATIONSHIPS AND THE CRITICAL TOOLS THEY NEED NOT ONLY TO OVERCOME THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF POVERTY, BUT TO GUIDE THEM TOWARD SUCCESS IN TODAY'S COMPETITIVE AND CHALLENGING WORLD. STUDENT TEST SCORES ARE JUST ONE INDICATOR OF STUDENT SUCCESS AT MHS. MILTON HERSHEY STUDENTS PERFORM WELL ACADEMICALLY, OFTEN SCORING BETTER THAN STATE AVERAGES ON STANDARDIZED TESTING AND RANKING EXCEPTIONALLY HIGHER THAN STUDENTS FROM SIMILAR SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS. MHS SETS ITS SIGHTS HIGH BY ADOPTING THE STATE TARGETS AS A MINIMUM GOAL AND HAS OUT-PERFORMED STATE AVERAGES AND SCORES OF SOME PREMIER SCHOOL DISTRICTS. EIGHTY ONE PERCENT OF MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL GRADUATES WILL IMMEDIATELY CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION AT A TWO- OR FOUR-YEAR COLLEGE OR TRADE SCHOOL. FOR STUDENTS WHO WILL GO ON TO HIGHER EDUCATION, MHS OFFERS SCHOLARSHIP CREDITS TO COVER MOST OF THE TUITION, FEES AND ROOM AND BOARD. ONE OF THE PROGRAMS CONTRIBUTING TO SUCCESS FOR OUR GRADUATES IS THE TRANSITIONAL LIVING PROGRAM. DURING THEIR FINAL YEAR OF RESIDENCE AT MHS, SENIORS ARE PLACED IN A SEMI-INDEPENDENT ENVIRONMENT UNDER ADULT LIVE-IN SUPERVISION. THIS COLLEGE/DORMITORY LIFESTYLE AND ITS ACCOMPANYING RESPONSIBILITIES ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE SENIOR-YEAR LEARNING EXPERIENCE. EVERYTHING FROM PERSONAL FINANCE TO PERSONAL SAFETY TO HEALTHY SLEEPING AND EATING HABITS ARE COVERED AS PART OF THE TRANSITIONAL LIVING CURRICULUM. SURVEYED STUDENTS INDICATE THE EXPERIENCE ENHANCES THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND BUILDS THEIR CONFIDENCE. THE SCHOOL CARES FOR ITS STUDENTS 24 HOURS A DAY AND OPERATES YEAR ROUND, INCLUDING HOLIDAYS AND THE SUMMER MONTHS. WHILE MANY SCHOOLS CLOSE DOWN FOR THE SUMMER, STUDENTS AT MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL CONTINUE TO LEARN THROUGH THE SCHOOL'S OPTIONAL YEAR ROUND EXPERIENCE (YRE) PROGRAM. STUDENTS WHO CHOOSE TO STAY ON CAMPUS DURING SUMMER BREAK ARE PROVIDED WITH A NUMBER OF ENRICHMENT LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. FROM A SUZUKI FESTIVAL FEATURING ART, MUSIC, AND DANCE TO OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK ALONGSIDE VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS IN NON-EMERGENCY ENVIRONMENTS, A WIDE RANGE OF PROGRAMS TO SUIT ALL INTERESTS ARE OFFERED ON AND OFF CAMPUS. SIX WEEKS ARE PACKED FULL OF LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND ADVENTURES. IF YOU ASK THE CHILDREN, MANY SAY THE TIME GOES BY VERY QUICKLY. SEVENTY ONE PERCENT OF STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN YRE PROGRAMMING IN THE 2015-2016 SCHOOL YEAR. THE MAJORITY OF STUDENTS WHO ENROLL AT MHS REQUIRE MORE INTENSIVE SUPPORT IN ALL AREAS OF THEIR LIVES, AND THESE SUPPORTS REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES. THE SCHOOL PROVIDES ALL "WRAP-AROUND" SERVICES (MEDICAL, DENTAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL; FAMILY-LIKE ENVIRONMENT; LODGING, FOOD, CLOTHING, TRANSPORTATION; ETC.) AT NO COST TO FAMILIES. THE MAIN GOAL FOR ALL OF OUR STUDENTS IS THAT THEY LEAVE THE SCHOOL WELL-PREPARED TO ENTER SOCIETY AS PRODUCTIVE CITIZENS. WE WANT ALL ENROLLED AT MHS TO BE GOOD STUDENTS, BUT WE ALSO WANT THEM TO BE GOOD PEOPLE, GOOD EMPLOYEES AND RESPONSIBLE MEMBERS OF THEIR COMMUNITIES. FORM OF ORGANIZATION MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST IS AN INTEGRATED TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION COMPOSED OF THE NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION, MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL, ACTING AS MANAGER UNDER THE DEED OF TRUST, AND THE TRUST ITSELF. THIS INFORMATIONAL RETURN IS REQUIRED TO INCLUDE THE EXPENSES OF THE ORGANIZATION AS A WHOLE, WITH DETAIL AS REQUIRED BY THE FORM INSTRUCTIONS. AS A RESULT, THIS RETURN INCLUDES ALL EXPENSES OF SERVING THE STUDENTS ENROLLED IN THE SCHOOL AND SCHOLARSHIP COSTS FOR ALUMNI PURSUING CONTINUING EDUCATION, AS WELL AS THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ADMINISTERING THE INVESTMENTS HELD IN THE TRUST. FORM 990, PART I, LINE 5 This figure includes W-2 forms filed within the tax year: all ancillary roles, part-time internships and work experience for students on campus, positions which have been vacated and filled by another individual within the year, and one-time event workers, for example. Milton Hershey School employs approximately 1,200 full-time staff.
FORM 990, PART III	PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL SEEKS TO NURTURE AND EDUCATE THE "WHOLE CHILD" WHICH MEANS THE SCHOOL AND SCHOOL TRUST PROVIDE FOR EACH CHILD IN A COMPREHENSIVE MANNER - COVERING THE EXPENSES OF BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE FOLLOWING: -THE EDUCATION OF STUDENTS IN STATE-OF-THE-ART CLASSROOMS WITH SMALL CLASS SIZES AVERAGING 15 STUDENTS PER CLASSROOM -THE PHYSICAL, DENTAL, AND PSYCHOLOGICAL CARE OF ALL STUDENTS -CLOTHING, FOOD, AND ROOM AND BOARD -CAREER-TECHNICAL TRAINING, COLLEGE COURSES BEFORE GRADUATION, VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS, MUSICAL INSTRUCTION, ATHLETIC PROGRAMS AND CAMPS, AND ENVIRONMENTAL AND AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION OFTEN STUDENTS WHO COME TO THE SCHOOL HAVE FALLEN AT LEAST ONE OR TWO GRADE LEVELS BEHIND BECAUSE OF FACTORS RELATED TO POVERTY, SUCH AS HOMELESSNESS, FAMILY DRUG AND ALCOHOL ADDICTION, OR MENTAL ILLNESS. FORTY-TWO PERCENT OF STUDENTS HAVE ATTENDED MORE THAN THREE DIFFERENT SCHOOLS BEFORE ARRIVING AT MHS. FIFTY PERCENT HAVE EXPERIENCED DRUG AND ALCOHOL ABUSE IN THEIR FAMILY, FORTY-THREE PERCENT HAD MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES IN THEIR FAMILIES, AND THIRTY-FIVE PERCENT HAVE EXPERIENCED NEIGHBORHOOD VIOLENCE. STUDENTS ARE GIVEN PSYCHOLOGICAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT WHEN NEEDED, AND CLOSE TO EIGHTY-NINE PERCENT OF STUDENTS RECEIVE ANYWHERE FROM ONE TO NINE SPECIALTY SERVICES. ELEVEN PERCENT RECEIVE TEN OR MORE SERVICES, WHILE LESS THAN ONE PERCENT OF STUDENTS RECEIVE NONE. A RIGOROUS ACADEMIC PROGRAM HELPS TO BRING STUDENTS UP TO GRADE LEVEL, AND THE AGGRESSIVE ACADEMIC SUPPORTS BRING MEASURABLE RESULTS. STUDENTS OUTPERFORM PEERS IN MOST SUBJECT AREAS ON STATE STANDARDIZED TESTING. IN FACT, MHS TEST SCORES ARE COMPARABLE TO SOME OF PENNSYLVANIA'S TOP SCHOOL DISTRICTS. A STRONG FOCUS ON CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION, JOB SHADOWING, AND HANDS-ON LEARNING HELPS TO PREPARE STUDENTS FOR LIFE BEYOND MILTON HERSHEY SCHOOL. FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS, EVERY GRADUATING SENIOR EARNED AT LEAST ONE INDUSTRY CERTIFICATION BY PASSING AN INDUSTRY-APPROVED TEST IN THEIR AREA OF STUDY. DURING THE 2015-2016 SCHOOL YEAR EVERY GRADUATING SENIOR EARNED AT LEAST TWO INDUSTRY CERTIFICATIONS BY PASSING AN INDUSTRY-APPROVED TEST IN THEIR AREA OF STUDY. CURRENTLY, THERE ARE ELEVEN CAREER PATHWAYS STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO PURSUE, INCLUDING BUSINESS/FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT & ACCOUNTING, LAW, PUBLIC SAFETY, & SECURITY, AND HEALTH SCIENCE. THE SCHOOL OPERATES YEAR ROUND AND MORE THAN SEVENTY PERCENT OF STUDENTS ATTEND DURING HOLIDAY BREAKS OR SUMMER MONTHS. A COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF PROGRAMS FOR CONTINUED LEARNING ARE OFFERED FOR CHILDREN TO PARTICIPATE BOTH ON AND OFF CAMPUS, IN ADDITION TO MUSIC AND ATHLETIC CAMPS. THESE PROGRAMS OFFER BOTH ENRICHMENT AND ENJOYMENT TO STUDENTS. DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR, STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED DIFFERENT EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES AND CLUBS. IN ADDITION TO LODGING, FOOD, AND CLOTHING, EACH STUDENT RECEIVES REGULAR PHYSICAL AND DENTAL CHECKUPS FROM THE SCHOOL, AS WELL AS ANY NECESSARY HEALTH SERVICE OR MEDICATION. DURING SCHOOL YEAR 2014-15, THERE WERE 134,228 HEALTH SERVICE VISITS BY STUDENTS TO THE SCHOOLS MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS DURING THE REPORTING YEAR, IN ADDITION TO 45,176 DENTAL PROCEDURES PERFORMED ON STUDENTS. IT IS NOT RARE TO HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT ARRIVE AT MILTON HERSHEY AND HAVE THEIR FIRST TRIP TO THE DENTIST BE AT THE MHS CAMPUS CLINIC. This tuition-free, comprehensive program, including physical care as well as educational programming in academic, home life and community/career settings, costs approximately $78,565 per year. (Total Program Expenses less depreciation and continuing education scholarship divided by the number of students. Including depreciation and continuing education scholarship, the cost is $100,797.) A PREMIER BOARDING SCHOOL LIKE MHS, OFFERING SIMILAR ACADEMIC PROGRAMMING AND SMALL CLASS SIZES, CHARGES APPROXIMATELY $60,000 PER YEAR WITHOUT PROVIDING PERSONAL EFFECTS LIKE CLOTHING, TECHNOLOGY, TRANSPORTATION, OR EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES LIKE SPORTS, VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS, AND INTERNSHIPS. ADDITIONALLY, MHS ASSUMES THE COST FOR MEDICAL PSYCHOLOGICAL, DENTAL, ORTHODONTIC, SOCIAL WORK, AND PRESCRIPTION CARE FOR EACH STUDENT. COSTS AT MOST PRIVATE COLLEGES ALSO EXCEED THIS FIGURE.

MR. AND MRS. HERSHEY ORGANIZED THE SCHOOL IN THE FORM OF A TRUST (THE "SCHOOL TRUST") CREATED UNDER AN ORIGINAL 1909 DEED OF TRUST THAT, AS AMENDED, STILL GOVERNS THE OPERATION OF THE SCHOOL.
