Return ReferencePart I, Line 2:ReturnReference
ExplanationSchedule I, Part I, Line 2: Once the recipients have been selected, we contact the university/college that they plan to attend in the fall to find out what their procedure is for receiving scholarships. Most require just a letter and some require a form to be completed. When the check is sent, we send along with it a letter describing who the scholarship is for, and that the check should be divided between the spring and fall semesters unless otherwise stated by the student. In January of each year, we send the recipients a renewal form that needs to be returned and completed along with a letter stating that in addition to the form we require the following: (i) A letter from the University stating that they are a student in good academic standing in a designated engineering major and that they are enrolled for the subsequent academic year to continue their studies in that major, and (ii) A copy of their most recent college transcript. For Cargill and AEP, at the end of each funding year, the schools provide PLTW with data collection items, along with a recruitment/action plan, an annual progress report, and an annual financial report. The data collection items include number of PLTW classes and sections, total number of students/total number of students taking PLTW, number of students taking PLTW broken down by grade/gender/race/ethnicity, total number of seniors graduating/number of senior students taking PLTW that are graduating, total number of seniors that plan to attend college/total number of seniors taking PLTW that plans to attend college, and number of students taking PLTW that plan to major in STEM. For the Chevron grants, all schools are visited prior to the award and conversation are held with the district and site administrators to ensure that they have the commitment and resources to use the funds correctly. All schools then must submit a proposal describing how the funds will be used. After the awards have been made, all sites are visited again to make sure that the funds have been spent as indicated in their proposal. Teachers are interviewed to make sure they have been trained. Students are interviewed to make sure the curriculum is being presented as specified. Spot checks are made to make sure that any equipment specified has been purchased.Explanation

The CEO performed the same process for all other key employees, and the compensation is approved by the board and compensation committee.
