Return Reference Explanation
Part III, Line 4: The Academy maintains a small art collection consisting of items donated to the school. Included in this collection is a series of photogravuers, a flemish tapestry, and several oil paintings (including portraits of Mr. & Mrs. Simms, major donors to the Academy.) The art collection is currently displayed in various venues across campus for the edification of our students as well as for the enjoyment of vistors of our campus. It is anticipated that items within the collection will grow in value over time and may eventually be sold to support various programs and initiatives benefiting the Academy's students.
Part V, Line 4: The Academy's endowment, consisting of permanent funds and a quasi-endowment fund, provides vital financial support for the overall mission of the Academy. The endowment sustains opportunities of remarkable scope, including experiential and outdoor education, deep academic excellence, global exchanges and languages and sustainability initiatives closely attuned to a changing world. These programs make the student experience here one of the broadest in independent education. The endowment also supports our admission process and generous financial assistance program. These programs are committed to providing access to the Academy for students of talent and character from throughout the city, region, and (at times) country as they seek an enriched and meaningful educational experience. The Academy's endowment supports our outreach programs to include: Community Academy lectures; Charger Aquatics progam; Summer Session; and artistic, athletic, and volunteer events on campus all exemplify our community outreach and the Academy's belief in life-long learning.
Part X, Line 2: The Academy's income tax footnote contains a description of the requirements of ASC 740 - Income Taxes. The footnote in the audited special-purpose financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 contains the following: The Academy is a not-for-profit organization and qualifies as an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). As such, the Academy is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(a) except on net income derived from unrelated business activities. For the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Academy has determined that no income taxes are due for its activities. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded in the accompanying special-purpose financial statements. Management annually reviews its tax positions and has determined that there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition in the accompanying special-purpose financial statements. The Academy files informational tax returns. In the normal course of business, the Academy is subject to examination by federal, state, local, and foreign jurisdictions, where applicable. As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations for the Academy are from the year ended June 30, 2011 and forward. The Academy would recognize accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. There was no such interest or penalties recorded for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Return Reference Explanation
Part I, Line 2: Financial assistance is awarded based solely upon demonstrated financial need. A family's need is assessed through a comprehensive screening process. The process requires that the family complete an application and provide the Academy with a full set of tax returns including all supporting schedules. To determine the appropriate financial assistance, the Academy utilizes a standard methodology provided by School and Student Services ("SSS") and which is used by Independent Schools nationwide. This methodology calculates a contribution for each individual family based upon the family's specific financial situation and discretionary income. Prior to making an award, each applicant's file and proposed award is carefully reviewed by a committee to ensure the decisions are based on consistent application of need based criteria. Financial assistance is awarded annually based on the current school year. Applicants must reapply annually by submitting a new application and current tax documentation. In addition to a committee review of each award, the Financial Assistance Office of the Academy conducts a random audit of files annually as another measure to ensure that financial assistance is being awarded appropriately and the proper supporting documentation was submitted as part of the application process. On a monthly basis, the Accounting Office of the Academy compares the financial assistance subsidiary ledger postings to a list of awards provided by the Financial Assistance Office to ensure there are no discrepancies between the two amounts. Any discrepancies are promptly researched and resolved.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990 - Part I - Line 1: Mission Statement The Academy was the fortunate recipient of a transformational gift of land in the early sixties, and fittingly, has chosen to use this gift to ensure economic accessibility to students living throughout the city of Albuquerque and the region. Today the Academy offers students an education that is without equal in the Southwest. Students from approximately 90 area schools are served by teachers who deliver their subject matter in creative and engaging ways. Students in the 6/7 division follow a non-traditional schedule that allows adaptability in an ever-changing world. Students in the 8/9 division are given their own campus space and their own accountability to help them grow into confident young adults. For the 10/12 division, course work involves increasingly philospohical and analytical thought. Academy students serve the community to which they belong, compete in a variety of competitive sports and participate in a variety of academic clubs and student organizations. Most Academy students attend four-year colleges and universities upon graduation, many of them enrolling at some of the best universities in the country. Admission to the Academy is competitive; approximately 54% of those who apply are offered admission. For the 2013/14 school year, the student body consisted of 48% boys and 52% girls, 49% are students of color, and 28% received approximately $4.6 million in financial assistance. Financial assistance is based on demonstrated financial need; only after students are admitted and their needs are assessed might financial assistance be offered.
Form 990 - Part III - Line 1 - Organization's Mission We believe that children's lives change when their natural passion for learning is nurtured and transformed into habits of life-long learning and reflection. We believe that the world changes as these children learn to serve country and community with wisdom, conviction, and compassion. In light of these beliefs: We serve students of talent and character, offering them an education that broadens their perspective, sharpens their minds, strengthens their bodies, and engages their hearts. We commit to creating a caring, inclusive, and just community, using the geography and culture of our home in the Southwest to enrich our educational programs and to foster creativity, personal balance and a connection to the natural world. We devote our resources to ensure economic accessibility to our students and to support the wider community through outreach and community service. We entrust this mission to our graduates and successors as we preserve our resources and serve the children of generations to come.
Form 990 - Part III - Statement of Program Accomplishments The Academy opened its doors in the fall of 1955 with 12 boys in grades 7 through 9, two teachers, and founding Head William Wilburn. Classes were held in rented space in the Parish Hall of St. Michael's and All Angels Church. In 1957, enrollment had grown to 75 boys and the school moved to a 27-acre site on north Edith Boulevard in Albuquerque, NM. The first class of seven boys graduated in 1960. In 1966, the school moved to its present location, and in 1967/68 was home to 405 boys. Girls were admitted beginning in 1973. For the school year 2013/14, the Academy served 1,110 girls and boys in grades 6 through 12. The Academy's remarkable growth was made possible largely through the transformational gift of Albert G. Simms, a New Mexico financier and rancher, and his wife, Ruth Hanna McCormick Simms. In the early 1960's the Simms gave or bequeathed to the Academy (in trust) more than 12,000 acres of undeveloped land and 8,000 shares of Albuquerque National Bank stock. The undeveloped land has been sold resulting in the endowment that today enables education in a beautiful and uplifting environment, and also has provided the school its campus. The uniqueness of the Academy is due, in large part, to its commitment to its admission policy, and to providing accessibility to qualified students from throughout the greater Albuquerque community. Every Academy student benefits from the school's commitment to accessibility and affordability. Direct support from the endowment covers approximately 25% of the cost not covered by tuition. A further commitment of the Academy is to diversity and dedicating the school's resources to creating an environment in which all students can thrive. It is the responsibility of all the school's constituents to make this environment conducive to learning and to foster mutual respect for one another. Students of color (including students of Middle Eastern, Hispanic, African American, Asian, and Native American ancestry) represented approximately 49% of the total student population for the 2013/14 school year. Appreciation for diversity is also extended to those of various socioeconomic levels. The Academy has chosen to voluntarily particpate in the USDA's National School Lunch Program which provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free breakfast and lunch to students each school day. Academy students benefit academically from small classes (averaging 16 students in the 6/7 division to 15 in the 10/12 division) and a teacher-to-student ratio of 1:9. 487 advanced placement exams were taken by Academy students in May 2014; of these students who took an advanced placement exam 74% received scores of 4 or 5, and 91% received a score of 3 or above. The 2014 graduating class had 28 National Merit Scholarship semifinalists, 11 commended students and 24 National Hispanic Scholars. Almost all Academy graduates enroll in a four-year college or university immediately upon graduation.
Form 990 - Part III - Statement of Program Accomplishments The Academy summer session, offered the opportunity to 1,947 children of the greater Albuquerque community (most non-affiliated with the regular school year) to participate in an enriching and exciting summer experience, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. The program had 267 class offerings and includes early childhood programs, a day camp, various sports camps and swim instruction for children from preschool to high school. Credit classes in math and science are also offered to high school students. An integral part of the session is the Multicultural Summer Honors Program, a summer scholarship program for academically talented and motivated African American, Native American, Hispanic, and other students who will be entering the fourth and fifth grades. The summer program has been an integral part of the Academy since 1984, reinforcing the school's unique mission of accessibility, affordability, excellence and outreach. The program also builds a broader sense of community, as summer students and their siblings, as well as children of faculty and alumni return summer after summer. The session is staffed by qualified and talented individuals who come from throughout New Mexico and the wider national and international educational community. The teacher/student ratio's for the summer session offered for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 was 1:5 for the day camp, 1:8 for the children's workshop, 1:12 for pre-grade 1, 1:13 for pre-grade 2-3, and 1:15 for all other programs offered.
Form 990 - Part III - Statement of Program Accomplishments The food service department serves the Academy community by providing nutritious meals, prepared with care, presented in an attractive manner, and served in a friendly atmosphere by a courteous staff within budgetary guidelines and in an environmentally sustainable way. The Academy dining halls provide lunch every school day for students, faculty, and staff. Lunch is included in the price of tuition and students are required to attend lunch as part of the regular school day. Students may self-select from hot or cold sandwiches, a salad bar, pasta and pizza, home-style items, southwestern and asian fare, soup, and milk/juice choices. In grades 6-9, nine to ten students and one faculty member eat at each table. Lunch tables are assigned and change on a regulary scheduled basis. In grades 10-12, students have open seating and may eat anytime during this division's open lunch period. The Academy participates in the USDA national school lunch program and follows the nutrition guidelines specified for these meals for students in grades 6-12. Calories, carbohydrates, protein, vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, cholesterol, and sodium are evaluated during menu planning and meet the USDA requirement when averaged over a week. Total fat is planned to be 30% or less and saturated fat 10% or less.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 Form 990 is prepared by the Academy's Controller with a review by the Academy's Business Manager and other key members of the Academy's management team. The Board of Trustee's Audit & Risk Committee members with Academy employees (Head of School, Treasurer, Business Manager and Director of Finance) review the form in detail. Trustee members utilize this time to ask questions, clarify data and make suggestions for any changes. Any agreed upon changes are incorporated into the Form, with a final review undertaken by the Controller and the Business Manager. The Form is submitted electronically to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in a timely manner. The trustees receive the Form 990. The Academy values those few donors who request that they remain anonymous to the community. To that end, to protect such donors and keep the school's promise that their identity will not be widely known, Schedule B of Form 990 is not provided to all Trustees of the Academy. All other portions of the Form 990 are provided to all Trustees. To be sure the board is aware of gifts and to protect the organization from the potential of inappropriate gifts to the school, the Board Chair, the Head of School, the Treasurer and the Director of Institutional Advancement are completely aware of the identity of all donors. Should any one of them determine that a donation might be inappropriate or pose a conflict with the organization, they are charged with raising the issue with the full board. The Academy publishes a comprehensive giving report on an annual basis that is available to the public.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c The conflict of interest statement is directed to the trustees, officers, those who make purchasing decisions, all persons who are described as management personnel and to anyone who has proprietary information concerning the Academy. Each employee must sign a statement annually which affirms such person has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy, has read and understands the policy and has agreed to comply with the policy. This is to ensure the Academy operates in a manner consistent with charitable purposes and does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its tax-exempt status. Periodic review shall, at a minimum, include whether transactions between employees and the Academy are negotiated as the result of "arm's length bargaining" and whether partnerships, joint ventures and any other business arrangements with the school are properly recorded. Transactions are further reviewed to ensure they reflect reasonable investment or payment for goods and services, they further charitable purposes and they do not result in inurement, impermissible private benefit or any excess benefit transaction. Accounting and other personnel are encouraged to report a situation involving a potential conflict of interest to an appropriate school official.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 The Board of Trustee's executive committee takes responsibility for the evaluation of its two direct reports, the Head of School and the Treasurer, and for the determination of compensation for each of those individuals. The executive committee consists of the Board Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Assistant Treasurer, and two at-large board members appointed by the Chair. All board members, including the members of the executive committee, submit a conflict of interest disclosure statement to the Chair of the board annually. These are utilized to determine that the committee members do not have any undisclosed conflicts of interest and they do not have any direct financial interest in the compensation provided to the Head of School or the Treasurer. In addition, at the time the executive committee considers compensation questions, each committee member is asked again to confirm that they do not have any conflicts of interest. The executive committee has, in some years, retained a compensation consultant intimately familiar with compensation for the heads of independent school's both in the region and nationally. The consultant has no financial or other interest in the compensation decisions made. The consultant has prepared a study of up to thirty or forty schools that are or may be comparable to the Academy in terms of complexity, size of operating budget, grade range and student body size. The consultant also considers heads of school with experience levels comparable to the Academy's Head of School. The consultant's compensation information includes evidence of salary, bonuses, benefits and other non-cash consideration that other heads of school may receive. The executive committee considers the information assembled by the consultant, and in addition, information gathered from Form 990's of other independent schools, news sources and independent school associations, in setting compensation for the Head of School, together with any information obtained from any evaluations that may have been peformed, ordinarily in the spring and early summer, in advance of the beginning of the Academy's fiscal year. The executive committee maintains minutes of its meetings, including those in which compensation matters are considered. The Chair of the board reports the compensation decisions to the full board. The most recent compensation consultant study was completed during the 2009/10 fiscal year. The compensation consultant provided a letter to the Academy's executive committee confirming his judgment that the Head of School's compensation was reasonable and appropriate. As noted, this information is supplemented by more recent information. Determining comparability of the Treasurer's compensation is more difficult because of the paucity of information available. The Treasurer's position at the Academy involves a fairly unique set of responsibilities in independent schools, ranging from management of a substantial endowment to a wide range of debt management, legal, business, and financial matters. One of the reports done by the compensation consultant did include information regarding the Treasurer's compensation by comparability to the second highest paid officer of the subject schools. That information, coupled with information from a survey by an Association of School Business Officers, certain Form 990 information, and the knowledge of the members of the executive committee of compensation levels prevailing in the geographic area for persons with the skill set and work ethic necessary to fill this office have been used to set compensation since that study. The executive committee continues to look for additional means of doing comparisons of compensation. The executive committee uses additional resources for making compensation decisions. The newly enhanced Form 990's from comparable schools, will allow the Academy to proceed during most years, by considering those (perhaps with a limited accounting firm confirmation of the information) together with information available from independent schools and business associations each year, and adding in a consultant's study and report on a regular basis.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Academy keeps a database (updated annually) of financial institutions, bondholders and vendors who have requested a copy of the Academy's audited financial statements as a condition of providing credit and services to the school. After the financial statement audit is completed and accepted by the Board of Trustees, electronic copies of the statements are distributed to all entities in the database. The Academy does not currently make its governing documents or conflict of interest policy statements available to the public.
Form 990 - Part XII - Financial Statements and Reporting - Line 2c The Academy has an Audit and Risk Committee that assumes responsibility for oversight of the annual financial statement audit and the resulting financial statements. The Audit and Risk Committee is also responsible for assessing and selecting the external audit firm of the Academy. The Academy did not change its oversight or selection process for the appointment of its external audit firm during the tax year currently being reported on.

Return Reference Explanation
Form 990 - Schedule R - Part IV - Line 1 In 1991, the Academy's Board of Trustees formed High Desert Investment Corporation ("High Desert"), a for-profit entity, for the intial purpose of acquiring and developing property owned by the Academy in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque. High Desert eventually included the following wholly owned subsidiaries: Tiburon Investment LLC, Mariposa East Commons LLC, and Mariposa Community Center LLC. In 2003, High Desert purchased approximately 1,400 acres of land from the Academy, which was located in Rio Rancho, New Mexico and undertook development activity of that real estate. High Desert suffered losses connected with the country's residential housing collapse beginning in 2007 from which it has not recovered. No development activity took place in fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 or 2013, nor did High Desert sell any land in those years. The Academy's equity method investment in High Desert was evaluated for impairment at June 30, 2012, and determined it to be fully impaired. The special-purpose audited financial statements reflect no activity for High Desert for the year ended June 30, 2014.
