Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)

PART I, LINE 3
THE HEAD OF SCHOOL (TOP MANAGEMENT OFFICIAL) OF THE SCHOOL RECEIVES A SALARY THAT IS COMPARED WITH OTHER HEADS OF COMPARABLE PRIVATE SCHOOLS. IN ADDITION, A SALARY SURVEY FROM ISM (INDEPENDENT SCHOOL MANAGEMENT) AND/OR SIMILAR INDEPENDENT BENCHMARK DATA IS UTILIZED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES IN DETERMINING THE HEAD OF SCHOOL'S COMPENSATION. THE HEAD OF SCHOOL REVIEWS ISM'S SALARY COMPARISONS AND/OR INDEPENDENT BENCHMARK DATA WHEN ESTABLISHING COMPENSATION FOR OTHER KEY EMPLOYEES OF THE SCHOOL.

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
