KIPP NYC Public Charter Schools Conflicts of Interest Policy
Purpose:
KIPP NYC Public Charter Schools, KIPP Academy Charter School, KIPP Infinity Charter School, and KIPP AMP Charter School have adopted a Code of Ethics setting forth for the guidance of trustees, officers and employees the standards of conduct expected of them, including standards with respect to disclosure of conflicts of interest regarding any matter brought or required to be brought before their respective Boards. The Conflict of Interest Policy is part of the Codes of Ethics adopted by each of the Corporations. It provides procedures for addressing, disclosing, and documenting conflicts of interest as such term in used in §§ 800 through 806 of the New York State General Municipal Law (hereafter “the Municipal Law”) and in § 715-a of the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law. It also includes procedures for addressing Related Party Transactions, as such term is defined in § 102 (24) of the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law. The Policy supplements, and does not replace any applicable provisions of the General Municipal Law and other state and federal laws governing conflicts of interest. It applies to all Trustees, Officers and Key Employees of each of the Corporations. The Schools will be referred to herein, individually, as “the Corporation.”
Definitions:
“Affiliate” means an entity controlled by, in control of, or under common control with the Corporation.
“Audit & Finance Committee” means the Audit & Finance Committee of the Corporation, as described in the
By-laws of the Corporation. The Audit & Finance Committee is comprised of at least three Trustees who are
Independent Directors as defined in § 102 (21) of the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law and in this Policy.
“Board” means the Board of Trustees.
“Compensation” means direct or indirect remuneration, as well as gifts or favors. A gift or favor that is valued at $75 or more is expressly prohibited by the Municipal Law when offered to a Trustee, Officer or Key Employee in connection with official duties, but gifts of lesser value may also be subject to this policy.
“Corporation” refers to each of the KIPP Charter Schools which have adopted this policy and which are Education Corporations and, as such, subject to provisions of the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law made applicable to education corporations by § 216-a of the Education Law. Each Corporation, as a chartered entity, is also subject to the Conflict of Interest Provisions of §§ 800 through 806 of the General Municipal Law,
“Financial Interest”: A person has a “Financial Interest” in a transaction if such person would receive an economic benefit, directly or indirectly, from such transaction or compensation agreement.
“Independent Director” means a Trustee who (i) is not, and has not been within the last three years, an
employee of the Corporation or an Affiliate and does not have a Relative who is, or has been within the last
three years, a Key Employee of the Corporation or of an Affiliate; (ii) has not received, and does not have a
Relative who has received, in any of the last three fiscal years, more than $10,000 in direct compensation from
the Corporation or from an Affiliate (other than reimbursement for expenses reasonably incurred as a Trustee,
DocuSign Envelope ID: E2586E80-E9FA-4840-A1CF-11725C2C79A6
Officer or Key Employee); and (iii) is not a current employee of, or does not have a substantial financial interest
in, and does not have a Relative who is a current officer of or who has a substantial financial interest in, any
entity that has made payments to, or received payments from the Corporation or from an Affiliate for property
or services in an amount which, in any of the last three fiscal years, exceeds the lesser of $25,000 or 2 % of such
entity’s consolidated gross revenues. For these purposes, “payment” does not include charitable contributions.
“Key Employee” includes but is not limited to any person who is in a position to exercise substantial influence
over the Corporation, as defined from time to time by the Corporation, or who has or shares authority to control
or determine a substantial portion of the operating budgets of the Corporation or the schools or compensation
for employees.
“Related Party” means: (1) any Trustee, Officer, or Key Employee of the Corporation or an Affiliate; (2) A Relative of any Trustee, Officer, or Key Employee of the Corporation or an Affiliate or (3) any entity in which any individual described in clause (1) or (2) of this definition has a 35% or greater ownership or beneficial interest, except that in the case of a partnership or professional corporation, a Related Party will include an entity in which any individual described in clause (1) or (2) above has a direct or indirect ownership interest in excess of 5%.
“Related Party Transaction” means any transaction or agreement or other kind of arrangement between the Corporation and a Related Party or an entity in which the Related Party has an interest. Related Party Transactions are subject to special provisions for disclosure, evaluation and documentation. In addition, certain Related Party Transactions are subject to limitations described in the Municipal Law. These special provisions and limitations are summarized in this Policy.
“Relative” means an individual’s spouse or domestic partner, as defined in Public Health Law §2994-a, ancestors, siblings (whether whole or half-blood), children (whether natural or adopted), grandchildren, great grandchildren and spouses or domestic partners of ancestors, siblings, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Children of siblings and their spouses and partners will also be considered Relatives under this Policy.
“School” any school managed by the Corporation.
“Trustees” and “Officers” are the elected individuals responsible for managing the affairs of the Corporation as described in the By-laws.
What is a Conflict of Interest?
For purposes of this Policy, a “Conflict of Interest” arises when the personal, professional or financial interests of a Trustee, Officer or Key Employee diverge or may potentially diverge from the interests of the Corporation. A conflict of interest will arise when a transaction involving the Corporation could financially harm or benefit a person covered by this Policy, but a conflict of interest does not always involve financial interests. A conflict may also involve the use of the services or facilities of the Corporation or may involve the use of staff assistance for purposes other than carrying out professional or fiduciary duties.
DocuSign Envelope ID: E2586E80-E9FA-4840-A1CF-11725C2C79A6
Conflicts may also arise if a Trustee, Officer or Key Employee is asked to communicate on behalf of a person or firm with the Corporation. Accordingly, a Trustee, Officer or Key Employee may not communicate with the Board or a School on behalf of a person or a firm, unless requested to do so by the Corporation, and shall avoid engaging in activities that would appear to be unduly influenced by other persons who have a special interest in matters under consideration by the Trustee of the Corporation or employees of one of the Schools. If a Trustee, Officer or Key Employee inadvertently engages in such activities, he/she shall promptly notify the Board in writing of such activities and shall disclose all known facts prior to participating in a Board discussion of these matters.
Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest:
Written disclosure of all potential Conflicts of Interest is required of Trustees, Officers and Key Employees prior to election or appointment and annually thereafter. However, Conflicts of Interest may arise between annual updates and, accordingly, an individual with a duality of interest shall disclose the potential Conflict (a) prior to voting on or otherwise discharging his or her duties with respect to any matter involving the potential Conflict; (b) prior to entering into any contract or transaction involving the Corporation; and (c) as soon as possible after he or she learns of an actual or potential Conflict of Interest. Disclosure of the material facts surrounding the Conflict of Interest shall be made to the Chairperson of the Board and the Chairperson of the Audit & Finance Committee. The interested Trustee or Officer shall thereafter refrain from participating in deliberations and decisions relating to the matter unless he or she is asked for information by the Chairperson of the Board or the Audit & Finance Committee.
The existence and resolution (as applicable) of any reported Conflict of Interest shall be documented in the appropriate records of the Corporation, including in the minutes of any meeting at which the Conflict of Interest was discussed and voted upon.
A Key Employee who wishes to use staff assistance, services or facilities for purposes other than carrying out professional responsibilities will disclose the Conflict to the Principal of the School who will exercise discretion in allowing or disallowing the proposed use in accordance with this Policy.
Annual Statements:
Without limiting the general and continuing disclosure obligation set forth in the preceding section, the Chairperson of the Audit & Finance Committee shall distribute annually to all Trustees, Officers and Key Employees, a form soliciting the disclosure of all potential Conflicts of Interests, including specific information concerning the terms of any contract or transaction with the Corporation and whether the applicable processes set forth in this Policy were used. Each Trustee, Officer and Key Employee shall also annually sign a statement included with the form distributed by the Corporation which affirms such person:
a. has received a copy of this Policy;
b. has read and understands this Policy, and
c. has agreed to comply with this Policy.
DocuSign Envelope ID: E2586E80-E9FA-4840-A1CF-11725C2C79A6
Written disclosures shall be submitted to and reviewed by the Chairperson of the Board and the Chairperson of the Audit & Finance Committee.
Related Party Transactions:
A Related Party Transaction is a transaction in which the Corporation is a party and a Related Party (as defined above) has a financial interest or another material interest. All rules and principles related to disclosure of Conflicts of Interest apply to Related Party Transactions, but in addition, the Trustees must initiate a formal Audit & Finance Committee review or a review by a quorum of the Board consisting of Independent Trustees.
Any Trustee, Officer or Key Employee with an interest in a Related Party Transaction shall make a good faith disclosure of all material facts related to such interest to the Audit & Finance Committee. The Audit & Finance Committee shall review all the material facts related to the proposed Related Party Transaction and request any additional information that it deems necessary to complete such review.
The Municipal Law prohibits transactions between Charter Schools and for-profit business entities in which a member of the Board of Trustees or a Key Employee has an interest if such Trustee or Key Employee has certain enumerated responsibilities. Accordingly, the Audit & Finance Committee will first determine whether or not the Trustee, Officer or Key Employee who has an interest in any proposed contract with a for-profit entity, has the power or duty, individually or as a member of the Board, to (1) negotiate, prepare, authorize or approve the contract or authorize payment thereunder; (2) audit bills or claims under the contract; or (3) appoint an officer or employee who has any of these powers or duties. If the interested Trustee, Officer or Key Employee does not have any of the enumerated responsibilities or if the proposed contract is with a not-for-profit entity, or is otherwise authorized by § 802 of the Municipal Law, the Committee may continue its review.
If a Related Party Transaction is otherwise authorized and the Related Party has a “substantial” financial interest or other material interest in such transaction, as assessed by the Audit & Finance Committee, the Audit & Finance Committee shall consider alternative transactions to the proposed transaction and the Chairperson of the Committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives. The Committee, after reviewing any such alternatives, shall determine whether the Corporation can obtain, with reasonable efforts, a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest.
The Audit & Finance Committee shall after considering alternative transactions and/or comparability data, determine whether the transaction or arrangement is fair, reasonable, and in the best interest of the Corporation at the time of its decision.
Following its review the Audit & Finance Committee may approve the transaction, or may refer the matter to the Board of Trustees for approval by the Board.
Upon receiving a recommendation from the Audit & Finance Committee, the Board may accept the recommendation or make an independent determination as to whether the proposed transaction is fair, reasonable and in the best interests of the Corporation. Upon the affirmative vote of not less than a majority of independent Trustees present, the Trustees may authorize the transaction.
DocuSign Envelope ID: E2586E80-E9FA-4840-A1CF-11725C2C79A6
At the time of any deliberation or decision by the Audit & Finance Committee or the Board concerning the authorization of a proposed Related Party Transaction, the interested Trustee, Officer or Key Employee shall not be present and shall not attempt to improperly influence any deliberations or voting, provided that the Board, or Audit & Finance Committee, may request such individual to provide information regarding the Related Party Transaction prior to the commencement of deliberations or voting.
The minutes of the meeting of the Board and the Audit & Finance Committee that conducted the initial review shall provide contemporaneous documentation of the basis for approval, including the Board’s consideration of any alternative transactions. The minutes shall also contain the names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement, the content of the discussion, and a record of any votes taken in connection with the proceedings.
The Corporation shall not enter into a Related Party Transaction unless it is approved in accordance with this Policy. Any Related Party Transaction that is approved without complying with the procedure set forth in this section shall be void.
Periodic Reviews
To ensure that the KIPP Schools operate in a manner consistent with charitable purposes and do not engage in
activities that could jeopardize tax-exempt status, periodic reviews shall be conducted by the Audit & Finance
Committee of each Corporation. The Audit & Finance Committee shall report to the Board of Trustees. The
periodic reviews shall, at a minimum, include the following subjects:
a. Whether compensation arrangements and benefits are fair and reasonable, based on competent survey information, and in the best interests of the Corporation.
b. Whether any related party transactions or arrangements with or on behalf of the Corporation are properly recorded, reflect reasonable investment or payments for goods and services, further
charitable purposes and do not result in inurement, impermissible private benefit or in an excess
benefit transaction.
Violations of the Conflicts of Interest Policy:
If the Board has reasonable cause to believe that a Trustee, Officer or Key Employee has failed to disclose an actual or possible Conflict of Interest, it shall inform the individual of the basis for such belief and afford that person an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the Board determines that the Trustee, Officer or Key Employee has failed to disclose an actual or possible Conflict of Interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.
