Part X, Line 2:The School is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state law, except for taxes pertaining to unrelated business income, if any. The School follows the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the School may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the School and various positions related to the potential source of unrelated taxable income. At June 30, 2016, there were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities. The School files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois. With few exceptions, the School is no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years before 2013.

ExplanationThe merit scholarship program was created three years ago to recognize and honor proficient and remarkably involved students. Typically three scholarships are awarded and the winners are chosen on a competitive basis only and without regard to family financial circumstances or financial aid. All 8th grade students entering 9th grade can compete for these scholarships. They must meet the Lycee's requirements for participation, write qualifying essays and participate in an interview with the Merit Scholarship Committee, a committee composed of administrators and teachers. All three Lycee Merit Scholarship winners are chosen from a group of candidates who first qualified by meeting specific academic requirements: in 7th and 8th grade, have consistently good grades and have shown exemplary conduct. Students applying must also complete the application that includes biographical and extra curriculum information as well as two essays written by the student. Eligible candidates are interviewed by the Merit Scholarship Committee who chose the winners by evaluating academic records, significant activities inside and outside the Lycee. Each Merit Scholarship represents 50% of the school year tuition. This amount is directly deducted from the student's tuition fees. The scholarship is awarded for the duration of the student's high school career provided he or she remains in good academic and disciplinary standing.ExplanationTxt
