THE SCHOOL PROVIDES TUITION-FREE EDUCATION FOR PRE-KINDERGARTEN THROUGH EIGHTH GRADE STUDENTS. THE SCHOOL'S MISSION IS TO SHAPE THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF STUDENTS BY PROVIDING THEM WITH AN ACADEMICALLY RIGOROUS CONTENT RICH CURRICULUM IN AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH CHARACTER IS MODELED. 0 0 11888926 109759 THE CHARTER SCHOOL PROVIDES STUDENTS WITH AN INTEGRATED EDUCATIONAL APPROACH THAT PLACES A HEAVY EMPHASIS ON THE ARTS, MUSIC, AND LITERATURE, IN ADDITION TO THE CORE SUBJECTS THAT ARE TRADITIONALLY COVERED. THE SCHOOL WORKS TO NURTURE THE CHARACTER OF EACH STUDENT THROUGH A STAFF THAT TEACHES AND MODELS EXCELLENCE AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF CHARACTER-FORMING RITUALS AND TRADITIONS. THE STUDENTS ARE TAUGHT THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNITY BY WORKING ALONGSIDE PARENTS/GUARDIANS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN PURSUIT OF OUR MISSION. THE FORMATION OF A STRONG COMMUNITY BEGINS WITH THE WAY WE STRUCTURE THE SCHOOL INTO SMALLER COMMUNITIES. IN ADDITION TO PRE-KINDERGARTEN FOR AGES THREE AND FOUR, THE SCHOOL HAS A PRIMARY ACADEMY (PK-2), INTERMEDIATE ACADEMY (3-5), AND PREP ACADEMY (6-8). THESE SMALLER COMMUNITIES ENABLE TEACHERS TO BUILD STRONG RELATIONSHIPS WITH STUDENTS AND WORK CLOSELY WITH FELLOW STAFF MEMBERS. THE SCHOOL ALSO OFFERS TUTORING TO ASSIST STUDENTS THAT REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SUPPORT. THE SCHOOL HAS ADOPTED A YEAR-ROUND CALENDAR DIVIDING THE YEAR INTO FOUR 9-WEEK QUARTERS SEPARATED BY TWO INTERSESSION PERIODS (TWO WEEKS IN THE FALL AND TWO WEEKS IN THE SPRING). DURING INTERSESSION, STUDENTS ARE EXPOSED TO INTEGRATED PROGRAMS THAT DELVE MORE DEEPLY INTO CONCEPTS LEARNED IN THE CLASSROOM. THIS CALENDAR FORMAT IS PARTICULARLY HELPFUL IN ENHANCING STUDENTS' RETENTION OF THE CURRICULUM WHILE CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENRICHMENT AND REINFORCEMENT. HOPE COMMUNITY BELIEVES THAT PARENTS HAVE THE PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY FOR TEACHING THEIR CHILDREN AND IT IS THE SCHOOL'S ROLE TO WORK ALONGSIDE PARENTS AND SUPPORT THEM IN THIS TASK. HOPE COMMUNITY ASKS PARENTS TO SIGN A COVENANT AGREEMENT WITH THE SCHOOL ACCEPTING THESE RESPONSIBILITIES AND COMMITTING TO WORK WITH US TO FULFILL OUR MISSION. HOPE HAS ALSO FORMED A PARENT COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP TEAM TO GIVE PARENTS AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THE DAILY DECISIONS OF THE SCHOOL. 11888926 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 44 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 5 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X THE ORGANIZATION 2028327370 2917 8TH STREET NE WASHINGTON DC 20017 JAMES KEMP BOARD CHAIR 2.00 X 0 0 0 LAVERN WILLIAMS PARENT MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 RANA JOHNSON PARENT MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ROXANE RUCKER BOARD MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CHLOE MARSHALL PRINCIPAL 45.00 X 107834 0 11715 107834 0 11715 1 0 0 0 SCHOOL HOUSE FINANCE 1005 N GLEBE RD STE 610 ARLINGTON VA 20036 RENT/BUILDING 2773987 IMAGINE SCHOOLS DC REGIONAL OFFICE 601 7TH STREET STE 202 LAUREL MD 20707 STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT 2179585 IMAGINE SCHOOLS 1005 GLEBE ROAD 610 ARLINGTON VA 22201 MANAGEMENT COMPANY 499462 REVOLUTION FOODS PO BOX 742769 LOS ANGELES CA 90074 FOOD CONTRACTOR 490813 PARADIGM THERAPY PARTNERS 6368 COVENTRY WAY 363 CLINTON MD 20735 SPECIAL THERAPY SERVICES 200090 5 14560611 14560611 OTHER REVENUE 900099 109759 109759 109759 14670370 109759 0 0 118034 118034 5749384 5640822 108562 152887 152887 735090 708145 26945 497641 482712 14929 1719812 1719812 15036 15036 23757 23757 93224 89471 3753 43936 21968 21968 129375 64687 64688 104153 90984 13169 3205772 3045483 160289 49870 24935 24935 94522 89796 4726 82164 78056 4108 FOOD SERVICE COSTS 435142 435142 CONTRACTED INSTRUCTIONA 338924 338924 CLASSROOM SUPPPLIES 185352 185352 TEXTBOOKS AND TEXTBOOK 95056 95056 271436 211436 60000 14140567 11888926 2251641 0 2047570 3086661 1099076 352656 24549 27076 882365 752950 99837 129415 3271032 3595808 870123 1087958 1143254 720392 2013377 1808350 X 1257655 1787458 1257655 1787458 3271032 3595808 529803 0 X X 0 1 X 1 1 1 X 15373 3858 11515 477901 360001 117900 389091 389091 0 129415 DUE TO AFFILIATED PARTY 720392 720392 X 14670370 0 14670370 0 14670370 14140567 0 14140567 0 14140567 PART X, LINE 2: FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD ACCOUNTING STANDARDS CODIFICATION 740 (ASC 740), INCOME TAXES, ESTABLISHES GUIDELINES FOR RECOGNIZING, MEASURING, AND DISCLOSING TAX RETURN POSITIONS IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
