THE ROTARY CLUB'S CHARITABLE FOUNDATION IS ANSWERING THAT CALL WITH A THREE-YEAR COMMITMENT TO INCREASE ACCESS TO AND THE QUALITY OF EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION IN ATLANTA. EARLY EDUCATORS ARE AMONG THE LOWEST-PAID PROFESSIONALS IN EVERY STATE, WHICH IS WHY EDUCATION WORKFORCE INCENTIVES ARE A KEY PILLAR OF THE MAYOR'S PLAN. THE ROTARY CLUB OF ATLANTA WILL BE THE LEAD PRIVATE-SECTOR PARTNER IN THIS EFFORT, HELPING TO KEEP MORE OF OUR BIRTH-TO-FIVE TEACHERS IN THE CLASSROOM AND ENCOURAGING THEM TO PUT THE SCIENCES OF HEALTHY BRAIN DEVELOPMENT, LANGUAGE ACQUISITION AND LITERACY TO WORK FOR OUR YOUNGEST LEARNERS.

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.
