CONTINUATION OF THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION OR MOST SIGNIFICANT ACTIVITIES: FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 THE NEW TEACHER PROJECT (TNTP) IS A NATIONAL NONPROFIT DEDICATED TO CLOSING THE ACHIEVEMENT GAP BY ENSURING THAT HIGH-NEED STUDENTS GET OUTSTANDING TEACHERS. FOUNDED BY TEACHERS IN 1997, TNTP PARTNERS WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND STATES TO IMPLEMENT SCALABLE RESPONSES TO THEIR MOST ACUTE TEACHER QUALITY CHALLENGES. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, TNTP HAS TRAINED OR HIRED APPROXIMATELY 48,000 TEACHERS, BENEFITING AN ESTIMATED 8 MILLION STUDENTS NATIONWIDE. IT HAS ESTABLISHED MORE THAN 75 PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES IN MORE THAN 30 STATES AND PUBLISHED FOUR SEMINAL STUDIES ON URBAN TEACHER HIRING AND SCHOOL STAFFING. IN FY11, TNTP WAS ACTIVE IN 30 CITIES. WE PRODUCED 1,534 TEACHERS THROUGH 18 TEACHING FELLOWS PROGRAMS. WE FILLED MORE THAN 3,100 VACANCIES THROUGH OUR STAFFING INITIATIVES CONTRACTS, DEVELOPED 1,105 NEW TEACHERS THROUGH 10 TEACHER PREPARATION AND CERTIFICATION PROJECTS AND LAUNCHED SIX NEW TNTP ACADEMY SITES. WE TOOK GROUNDBREAKING STEPS TO HOLD OUR NEW TEACHERS ACCOUNTABLE FOR CLASSROOM PERFORMANCE IN ORDER TO EARN CERTIFICATION, USED OUR INSTRUCTIONAL CULTURE INSIGHT SURVEY TO HELP SCHOOL LEADERS RE-ASSESS THEIR TALENT MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES AND PARTNERED WITH THE HOUSTON INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT TO UNDERTAKE THE LARGEST URBAN TEACHER EVALUATION REFORM EFFORT IN THE NATION. WITH TNTP'S SUPPORT, DISTRICTS ARE GENERATING EVALUATION RESULTS THAT LOOK QUITE DIFFERENT FROM THE "WIDGET EFFECT" TRENDS OF THE PAST AND BETTER EVALUATION SYSTEMS ARE EMPOWERING THEM TO RECOGNIZE EXCELLENT TEACHING AND ADDRESS POOR PERFORMANCE. WE RELEASED SEVERAL REPORTS GUIDING DISTRICTS AND STATES NATIONWIDE AS THEY OVERHAUL THEIR TEACHER EVALUATION SYSTEMS. WE ALSO DEVELOPED THE SCHOOL LEADERS TOOLBOX, A FREE RESOURCE COLLECTED FROM THE NATION'S TOP CHARTER SCHOOLS AND INFORMED BY MORE THAN 1,000 TEACHERS AND SCHOOL LEADERS. IT OFFERS PROVEN TOOLS AND INNOVATIVE STRATEGIES FOR MANAGING TEACHER WORKFORCES TO HIGH PERFORMANCE.
ORGANIZATION'S MISSION STATEMENT CONTINUED: FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1: BY PROVIDING EXCELLENT TEACHERS TO THE STUDENTS WHO NEED THEM MOST AND BY ADVANCING POLICIES AND PRACTICES THAT ENSURE EFFECTIVE TEACHING IN EVERY CLASSROOM.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11   THE NEW TEACHER PROJECT'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS (THE "BOARD") APPROVED FORMATION OF AN AUDIT & FINANCE COMMITTEE (THE "COMMITTEE") AND APPOINTED AN EXISTING BOARD MEMBER AS A MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEE AT A MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 23, 2008. EFFECTIVE JUNE 26, 2008,THE BOARD ADOPTED THE COMMITTEE CHARTER, RATIFIED, CONFIRMED & APPROVED THE APPOINTMENT OF THE COMMITTEE MEMBER AND APPOINTED 2 ADDITIONAL MEMBERS. A FOURTH COMMITTE MEMEBR WAS APPROVED ON OCTOBER 26, 2009. TNTP HAS ITS FORM 990 PREPARED BY AN OUTSIDE ACCOUNTING FIRM AND HAS ESTABLISHED THE FOLLOWING REVIEW PROCESS TO ENSURE THAT THE INFORMATION REPORTED IS COMPLETE AND ACCURATE. WHEN THE FORM 990 HAS BEEN PREPARED, REVIEWED BY MANAGEMENT AND IS READY TO BE FILED WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE, IT'S SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY TO THE COMMITTEE FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL. THE COMMITTEE-APPROVED 990 IS ELECTRONICALLY TRANSMITTED AND REVIEWED WITH MEMBERS OF THE BOARD FOR ANY COMMENTS PRIOR TO ITS SUBMISSION. THE BOARD IS PROVIDED WITH ONE WEEK TO REVIEW THE PREPARED FORM 990 AND PROVIDE THEIR COMMENTS. THE CFO THEN REVIEWS ANY COMMENTS, AND WORKS WITH THE RELEVANT STAFF AND ACCOUNTING FIRM TO MAKE ANY NECESSARY CHANGES. EACH ISSUE IS DOCUMENTED AND ADDRESSED UNTIL THE RETURN IS FINALIZED AND APPROVED FOR FILING.

THE POLICY REQUIRES THAT ALL INDIVIDUALS HAVE A DUTY TO DISCLOSE TO THE DIRECTORS AND MEMBERS OF COMMITTEES WITH BOARD DELEGATED POWERS CONSIDERING THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT THE EXISTENCE OF ANY FINANCIAL INTEREST AND ALL MATERIAL FACTS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTUAL OR POSSIBLE CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

  FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD FINALIZES THE CEO'S SALARY AND ANY BONUS. FOR OTHER POSITIONS, OUR HUMAN CAPITAL TEAM ESTABLISHES A SALARY SCALE BASED ON PRE-DETERMINED LEVELS. PRIOR TO POSTING ANY VACANCY, HUMAN CAPITAL EVALUATES EACH POSITION, DEFINES ITS LEVEL TO DETERMINE STARTING SALARY, AND THEN ADJUSTS IT TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE EMPLOYEE'S EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS. THE CEO, WITH INPUT FROM THE LEADERSHIP TEAM, MAKES ALL BONUS DECISIONS FOR TNTP STAFF. THE HUMAN CAPITAL TEAM AND THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF TNTP'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONDUCT REGULAR MARKET ANALYSES TO ENSURE THAT TNTP COMPENSATES ITS STAFF AT COMPETITIVE RATES. DURING 2010, TNTP CONTRACTED AN INDEPENDENT COMPENSATION CONSULTANT TO DO THIS ANALYSIS ON SELECT POSITIONS, INCLUDING THE CEO POSITION. DATA WAS COLLECTED DIRECTLY FROM CHARTER AND NATIONAL EDUCATION NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, FROM MULTIPLE COMPENSATION SURVEYS SPECIFIC TO THE NON-PROFIT INDUSTRY, FROM 990 FORMS, AND FROM LARGE SCHOOL DISTRICTS. THE STUDY CONCLUDED THAT TNTP'S SALARY BANDS ARE GENERALLY ALIGNED WITH THE MARKET, AND IN SOME CASES, SALARIES WERE BELOW MARKET. DURING SEPTEMBER 2010, MANAGEMENT ANNOUNCED CHANGES TO ITS COMPENSATION MODEL FOR FY11 TO BETTER ALIGN COMPENSATION WITH THE MARKET. THIS MARKET ANALYSIS WAS SHARED WITH THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD, AND CONSIDERED IN THEIR RECOMMENDATION FOR CEO COMPENSATION.
