Overview

Mission

Support of Fairfax County Elementary Schools

What it reported doing in 2020

Member conferences and meetings to support elementary school principals and assistant principals, discuss issues, develop positions and promote professional development opportunities.

Operating model

Revenue model: Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model: Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and the available information about grant readiness automatic revocation leaves an important question unanswered.
