OMB Control No. 1894-0005 (Exp. 01/31/2011)

NOTICE TO ALL APPLICANTS

The purpose of this enclosure is to inform you about a new provision in the Department of Education's General Education Provisions Act (GEPA) that applies to applicants for new grant awards under Department programs. This provision is Section 427 of GEPA, enacted as part of the Improving America's Schools Act of 1994 (Public Law (P.L.) 103-382).

To Whom Does This Provision Apply?

Section 427 of GEPA affects applicants for new grant awards under this program. ALL APPLICANTS FOR NEW AWARDS MUST INCLUDE INFORMATION IN THEIR APPLICATIONS TO ADDRESS THIS NEW PROVISION IN ORDER TO RECEIVE FUNDING UNDER THIS PROGRAM.

(If this program is a State-formula grant program, a State needs to provide this description only for projects or activities that it carries out with funds reserved for State-level uses. In addition, local school districts or other eligible applicants that apply to the State for funding need to provide this description in their applications to the State for funding. The State would be responsible for ensuring that the school district or other local entity has submitted a sufficient section 427 statement as described below.)

What Does This Provision Require?

Section 427 requires each applicant for funds (other than an individual person) to include in its application a description of the steps the applicant proposes to take to ensure equitable access to, and participation in, its Federally-assisted program for students, teachers, and other program beneficiaries with special needs. This provision allows applicants discretion in developing the required description. The statute highlights six types of barriers that can impede equitable access or participation: gender, race, national origin, color, disability, or age. Based on local circumstances, you should determine whether these or other barriers may prevent your students, teachers, etc. from such access or participation in, the Federally-funded project or activity. The description in your application of steps to be taken to overcome these barriers need not be lengthy; you may provide a clear and succinct

description of how you plan to address those barriers that are applicable to your circumstances. In addition, the information may be provided in a single narrative, or, if appropriate, may be discussed in connection with related topics in the application.

Section 427 is not intended to duplicate the requirements of civil rights statutes, but rather to ensure that, in designing their projects, applicants for Federal funds address equity concerns that may affect the ability of certain potential beneficiaries to fully participate in the project and to achieve to high standards. Consistent with program requirements and its approved application, an applicant may use the Federal funds awarded to it to eliminate barriers it identifies.

What are Examples of How an Applicant Might Satisfy the Requirement of This Provision?

The following examples may help illustrate how an applicant may comply with Section 427.

(1) An applicant that proposes to carry out an adult literacy project serving, among others, adults with limited English proficiency, might describe in its application how it intends to distribute a brochure about the proposed project to such potential participants in their native language. (2) An applicant that proposes to develop instructional materials for classroom use might describe how it will make the materials available on audio tape or in braille for students who are blind. (3) An applicant that proposes to carry out a model science program for secondary students and is concerned that girls may be less likely than boys to enroll in the course, might indicate how it intends to conduct "outreach" efforts to girls, to encourage their enrollment.

We recognize that many applicants may already be implementing effective steps to ensure equity of access and participation in their grant programs, and we appreciate your cooperation in responding to the requirements of this provision.

Estimated Burden Statement for GEPA Requirements

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless such collection displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 1894-0005. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average 1.5 hours per response, including the time to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather the data needed, and complete and review the information collection. If you have any comments concerning the accuracy of the time estimate(s) or suggestions for improving this form, please write to: U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20202-4537.

A. The Richard Milburn Academy: Measuring Success

Richard Milburn Academies (RNA) are public charter high schools that offer students

who are struggling in the traditional high school setting an opportunity to get back on

track, improve their grades, and earn a high school diploma. Supporting students at

high-risk for drop-out, Richard Milburn Academies implement nontraditional learning

environments, small class sizes, flexible scheduling and a wealth of supportive services

that provide students the individual attention and student-centered academic assistance

necessary to promote positive outcomes. Since the first Richard Milburn Academy

opened in 1998, more than 33,000 students have earned a high school diploma from

these schools, which are dedicated to providing a positive learning environment for even

the most discouraged student. Today, there are eight Richard Milburn Academies in

Texas, meeting the diverse needs of more than 1,500 high school students annually.

The Richard Milburn Academies in Texas are located in diverse regions

across the state- Amarillo, Corpus Christi, Fort Worth, Houston, Killeen, Lubbock,

Midland and Odessa. Although these schools serve diverse communities, there are

striking similarities among the students that choose to enroll in this nontraditional

educational program:

• Economic Issues- 70% of RMA students are economically disadvantaged.

• Academic Issues- RMA students have struggled throughout their academic career,

working hard to meet requirements but too often unable to access home supports that

promoted success for their non-disadvantaged peers.

• Parental Support Issues- The majority of RMA students are potential first-

generation college students. Parents of RMA students frequently have low levels of

education and are not prepared to offer homework assistance. Although RMA

parents want a better future for their children, they often struggled academically

themselves and are ill equipped to promote scholastic success for their children.

RMA parents are often intimidated by institutions of higher education as they have

little to no experience in this realm. RMA parents often believe that a college

education is unattainable due to both cost and academic difficulty – beliefs that they

unintentionally pass on to their children. As a result, RMA students rarely list any

long-term goals related to education beyond earning a high school diploma when they

first enroll in the Academy. RMA has worked hard to address this, with notable

success that we continue to replicate in the state of Texas and beyond.

One such replication and expansion strategy is the GO CAREER! GO

COLLEGE! EXPANDING OPPORTUNITY FOR HIGH NEED STUDENTS

(GO CAREER! GO COLLEGE!) project, a joint venture between Richard Milburn

Academy, Texas and Agile Mind, Incorporated and Avid, Incorporated. The goals of

the five years of this project include:

Goal 1: Introduce the Corpus Christi, Texas Charter School Model into six new Texas

school districts: Spring ISD, Arlington ISD, Victoria ISD, Pasadena ISD, Aldine ISD

and Round Rock ISD.

Goal 2: Improve CMO project management and school-based programs through

continuous feedback loop of interim measures of progress toward outcome goals of:

o 90% graduation rate

o 60% career rate

o 30% career preparation rate

Goal 3: Validate teacher and administrator performance incentive plans (EPIC) utilize

by RMH charter management since 2004.

Richard Milburn Academies is applying for an expansion grant to begin January 1, 2012

and end June 30, 2016. Out total grant request is $6,213,036 for a 4 ½ year project to establish

6 additional schools to serve 6,000 students in Texas.

RMA is applying for the following program priorities:

Competitive Preference Priority 1- Low-Income Demographic

In 2009-2010, 70% of Richard Milburn Academy students were eligible for free or reduced-

price lunch. The proposed replication project will serve a comparable student population.

Competitive Preference Priority 3- Promoting Diversity

As described in multiple sections, RMA has demonstrated prior success in promoting diversity,

particularly as it relates to promoting student achievement.

1. The degree to which the applicant has demonstrated success in increasing student

achievement.

In the eleven years of operating charter schools in Texas, over 25,000 at need high

school students have been successfully educated in nine schools. Table 1 contains the

demographic and educational profile of the 2008-09 student population, the most recent data

from the Texas Education Agency (TEA):

The profile of RMA, TX schools in Table 1 reveals a uniform record of successful outcomes

with a severely at-need population under demanding circumstances. Over 3,000 students

enrolled in the nine schools is evidence of successfully accomplishing the mission of being

open to all students. However, an average mobility rate of 71% means that over two thirds of

the student body, 2,200 students, came and went during the school year. This is congruent with

the RMA credit recovery mission, which fosters short-term enrollments. However, the high

mobility results in substantially increased administrative and pedagogical burdens compared to

schools that serve more stable and less needy populations.

The data also reveal the diversity and needs of the RMA students as a whole and in each

school: 90% at risk; 69% economically disadvantaged; 64% ethnic/racial minority (separate

PEIMS data source). True to its mission, RMA serves, almost exclusively, the most needy

students; and, for the vast majority, RMA is their last chance for renewal. Under these

circumstances of mobility, poverty, educational gaps and discontinuities, the RMA,

performance is remarkable and is evidence of the efficacy of its philosophy, management, and

programs. An attendance rate of 86% is a direct outgrowth of the RMA Advisor System and

the policy of continual home to school contact. The Completion Rate II of 66% among

dropouts and at risk students is equally impressive.

The TAKS accomplishments are also impressive. Each campus and RMA as a whole far

exceeded the Texas Alternative Education Standard of 50% passing all TAKS Tests. Across all

nine schools, RMA students passed 78% of the TAKS Tests, with four campuses approaching

the 90% passing rate. Finally, although not strictly a performance measure, it is worth pointing

out that 85% of all parents and students surveyed (row eleven) were satisfied with their RMA

school. If this grant is not funded and our 6 new charter schools are not able to be established as

quickly as federal funding would allow, additional children needing an alternative educational

experience will drop-out or give up, never obtaining the education needed to be successful in

the future workforce. Most of these children will begin a new cycle of poverty, much like that

of their parents who also failed to thrive in school for a multitude of reasons.

2. The degree to which the applicant has demonstrated success in closing historic

achievement gaps.

70% of RMA’s students belong to the subgroups described in Section 1111(b)(2)(C)(v)(II).

Hence, the success of RMA is directly related to closing achievement gaps for these students. As

stated above, students at all nine RMA schools passed 78% of the TAKS Tests, with four

campuses approaching the 90% passing rate.

3. The degree to which the applicant has achieved results in addressing in key metrics.

For the past decade, RMA has tracked each school’s performance as measured by

graduates, withdrawals, dropouts, etc. to determine the school’s Record of Success. This

somewhat complicated metric tracks all students in a school, no matter how brief their stay

and yields two key numbers.

Table 2 displays the school-by-school and Total RMA, eleven year record of 85% success

with a concomitant dropout rate of 15%. Less abstractly phrased, of the 23,000 RMA students

enrolled over ten years 20,000 have substantially improved their education and their chances for

future success.

B. Assisting Educationally Disadvantaged Students

1. RMA History Richard Milburn Schools exist to rebuild education for three categories of

students. First, those who need to make up a course or two before returning to their home school.

Second, those who need to recover their educational momentum, lost for a variety of reasons and

typically recaptured only through a year of hard work. Finally, those who need to rebuild their

future, usually lost traumatically, and who therefore require a long-term commitment to Richard

Milburn. Thus, to one degree or another all our students are educationally disadvantaged and at

need.

The problem of high school dropouts in America has been thoroughly researched for more

than forty years and addressed at the presidential level since the administration of President

Johnson. More recently, and more urgently, Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama have

highlighted the human and economic costs of this phenomenon, calling for increased funding for

dropout prevention programs (Michael McLaughlin, “High School Dropouts…” the Heritage

Foundation, 1990; Andrew Sum, et. al. “The Hidden Crisis in the High School Dropout

Problems…” Northeastern University, 2003).

And, as despairing as the dropout problem is across our nation, the situation is even worse in

Texas where Richard Milburn Academy proposes to initiate this program to promote college

access and success. The most recent statistics reveal the national scope of the situation:

• Approximately 1.5 million students do not graduate each year

PR/Award # U282M110023

Page e28

U282M110023 0023

Page 29: New APPLICATION FOR GRANTS UNDER THE · 2014. 7. 18. · U.S. Department of Education Washington, D.C. 20202-5335 APPLICATION FOR GRANTS UNDER THE 84.282M CSP Grants for Replication

10

• More than 50% of the above students are from racial or ethnic minorities

• Only half of the age-eligible minority students graduate from high school with a standard

diploma.

In summary, too many students are dropping out of high school, and far too many of

those students are poor and minorities. Annually, across the United States, more than a million

students dropout; more than half a million of these dropouts are minority students; and a wealthy

student is eight times more likely to graduate than a poor student.

2. High Need Student Program Model. In designing and implementing a successful

secondary program for high need students, it is not enough to know how many high need there

are and where they are located. One most also know why they are dropping out; and in the

process of answering that question, one discovers that “dropout,” with its implication of

individual choice, is an unsatisfactory and perhaps even misleading description.

Students who arrive on the RMA campuses are at immediate need and defy easy

categorization. However, over the twelve years of operating and refining our program, we have

found that they fall into five general groups, approximating the analysis by Robert Balfanz of the

Center for Social Organizations of Schools (CSOS), and subsequently confirmed by “The Silent

Epidemic” Bridgeland, et.al, Civic Enterprises, Johns Hopkins University. The five classes of

dropouts served by RMA are:

Personal Accident. This includes the myriad of teenage troublesome events: pregnancy,

arrest, gang membership, auto accident, etc. Whatever the event is, it either precludes

continuing a conventional high school program or necessitates a more flexible program.

Failure to Thrive. Some students find that their academic, social, co-curricular, and

personal skills are not adequate to the challenges posed by today’s large and competitive

comprehensive high schools. Although there is no such thing as an average ninth grader,

PR/Award # U282M110023

U282M110023 0023

11

the typical comprehensive high school hurls them into a complex and competitive

environment virtually overnight. For whatever reason, some do not catch on and begin to

lose confidence and initiative. Soon they fall behind and either quit, act out, or both.

Ignored and Submerged. These students present special needs, e.g. learning disability,

non-native language, or less frequently, unique academic talents. For many reasons,

their school either does not recognize their need or does not respond to it. Consequently,

the student loses interest and motivation.

Family Circumstances. This group correlates with poverty, divorce, death or a

catastrophic family event, such as eviction, homelessness, etc. Unfortunately, during this

current recession these circumstances are all too common; they have a crippling impact on

the students, forcing them to seek part-time work that necessitates a more flexible and

innovative program.

Expelled or Repelled. Students who are dangerous, disruptive, or more often, just

difficult or “different” are either expelled or too frequently suspended. Finding

themselves behind in everything, courses completed, grade point average, low

attendance, they give up and leave school.

3. High Need Program Outcomes. Kicked out. Nudged out. Dropped out. Sent by

sympathetic guidance counselors, stern judges, indifferent policemen. Hostile, confused,

apathetic. Black, Brown, White. For many reasons, from numerous sources, and carrying with

them a variety of attitudes and needs, for over a decade these students have been accepted into

Richard Milburn. Not one has been rejected, for as diverse as their origins may be, they share a

common bond: All are educationally disadvantaged and at the end of the line.

The value added of an education provided by Richard Milburn charter schools is evident in a

number of metrics:

• Cumulative 10 Year Enrollment: 30,000. A number of this magnitude, achieved in a

decade of operation, indicates that Richard Milburn, the personnel, schools and the CMO

itself, is intimately familiar with the educationally disadvantaged. In fact, no other CMO can

equal RMA’s years of experience and number of students served in the field of the

educationally disadvantaged.

• Average 10 Year Daily Attendance: 81.3%. ADA is a process metric that is proven to be

correlated with academic achievement. The ADA is a substantial achievement by itself and

testimony to the schools’ aggressive monitoring and follow through with truant students.

Furthermore, the ADA has increased over the years, going from 79.1% in 1999 to 85.7% in

2009 in Texas. On any given day, 2,400 at need students are attending classes in a Richard

Milburn Academy in Texas.

• 10 Year Success Rate: 86%. Phrased another way, of the 30,000 students enrolled over ten

years, only 3,900 have dropped out while over 25,000 remained in school or graduated. As

impressive as this decade of success has been in holding and reshaping the lives of students,

the dropout rate can and will be lowered in the proposed project.

• 2008 – 09 Highstakes Test Success Rates:

13

The test results shown here are not as high as they should be, but it is not a result of lack of

effort or an inadequate commitment to professional development. For example, in an effort to

improve math scores in Texas, the following changes were made: teacher training funding

increased 120%; math instructional time increased 17%; and $33,000 in bonuses were paid to

math teachers based on TAKS results.

RMA monitors test results closely and quickly mobilizes resources to deal with emerging

needs. Consequently, Texas test scores have steadily improved over the past five years for all

schools and all tests:

TABLE 4: COMPARISON 04 – 09 TAKS PASSING RATES

2009 71% 33% 36% 71%

2004 53% 14% 28% 69%

There is room for improving the RMA high stakes testing results, but the record is clear. Passing

rates have increased over the years and RMA has the commitment, flexibility and resources to

deploy swiftly and effectively to improve test performance.

4. Beyond Graduation: The RMA Record. From the beginning, the RMA philosophy and

program have embraced post-secondary education as the ultimate goal. Attending RMA was not

simply a credit recovery, short-term, experience and then back to another school for

PR/Award # U282M110023

Page e32

U282M110023 0023

14

graduation. Rather, the RMA program, The Arc of Renewal, is predicated upon crafting a

fundamental redirection in each student’s life. Hence, RMA annually surveys its graduates as to

their plans after graduation and then follows up with a second survey six months later. The results

are encouraging:

TABLE 5: PERCENT POSTSECONDARY PLANNING, 2009

At Graduation Six Month Follow Up

Texas 73% 39%

Their postsecondary intentions at graduation run high; however the rates in the six month

follow up are cause for concern. The mailed survey has only a 40% response rate, but clearly work

needs to be done. For example, in addition to adding “graduation coaching” to the RMA progress,

a unit on post-RMA financial planning and scholarship and grant opportunities will be added to the

curriculum.

C. Quality of Design.

High need students presented to a Richard Milburn Alternative School manifest many

symptoms that demand immediate attention. The RMA model, based upon a unique blend of

extant research refined by twelve years of field experience, consists of a Basic Component of six

elements and an Innovative Component of five elements. It is evolutionary in design and is

experienced by the student as the Arc of Renewal, visualized below in Figure 1:

The Arc of Renewal

Recovery Restoration

Reception Redirection

Time

Figure 1

The Arc of Renewal is both a process and philosophy, based upon optimism and delivered

with skill and care. From Reception to Redirection, the process is designed to deliver the six

RMA Basic Elements and five RMA Innovative Elements in a healing manner that rebuilds

skills and confidence and leads to previously unimagined career and college aspirations:

1. Reception. The high need student comes with emotional and academic baggage, and is

personally welcomed by the RMA School Director. The Director sets the academic and

organizational parameters and, equally important, the tone of the school. From this point to

graduation, the Director knows the student’s name, history, and circumstances. Furthermore, the

Directors are expected to follow and make contact frequently, when both good and bad things

happen. In brief, the RMA Directors are perceived as receptive, authoritative, engaged in the

student’s life and always present throughout the school. In the RMA school, the Director is the

“Go-To” person.

2. Recovery. Gradually the student is re-introduced into the discipline of academic life,

course selection, attendance, homework, etc. However, this phase of the process is much less

PR/Award # U282M110023

Page e34

U282M110023 0023

Page 35: New APPLICATION FOR GRANTS UNDER THE · 2014. 7. 18. · U.S. Department of Education Washington, D.C. 20202-5335 APPLICATION FOR GRANTS UNDER THE 84.282M CSP Grants for Replication

16

stressful for the student at RMA because: 1.) The schools are small and classes are small. There

is no back row at RMA, 2.) The student does not feel “different” because virtually all the

students are “different”, and 3.) Each student is part of a small home room group that meets

frequently with a teacher who closely monitors and follows-up on progress or the lack thereof.

Thus, close constraint, sympathetic attention, and rapid intervention keep the sometimes

recalcitrant scholars on the road of Recovery.

3. Restoration. Success breeds hope and hope breeds plans. Although the process is hardly

linear or smooth, the student is restored, both in skills and attitude. Academic rebuilding of

courses, grades, and aptitude, is the significant achievement, but it is not singular. The student

begins to feel at home: the Director is engaged and is present; the teachers call home;

extracurriculars, e.g. sports, government, prom committee, etc. seek the student out for help.

Graduation is no longer a dream; it is a reality. And, with increased support from the Richard

Milburn program Innovative Elements, the student contemplates a broader, brighter, post-

graduate horizon of entering a career or a post secondary institution.

4. Redirection. The goal of the Richard Millburn program and experience is full preparation

for entering a career, or a post-secondary institution. Thus graduation is a means, not an end, and

the full counseling and academic resources of the RMA Innovative Components are deployed to

create a Redirection in the student’s life.

5. Design Costs. RMA has provided public and private alternative educational services for

high need students for the past ten years. Recognizing the need for nontraditional education

programs for high need students, RMA develops charter alliance arrangements with public

school systems seeking to enhance and supplement their existing alternative programs for high

need students. The RMA Model, is cost effective as it has demonstrated significant results for a

17

per student cost less than the public district’s average per student expenditures, and, in fact, less

than other charter schools.

Two recent reports comparing charter and public school funding confirms what is already

known: Charter Schools are systematically under-funded when compared to their public school

counterparts throughout the nation receiving $2,247 less in 2006-07 (Ball State University 2010

study for Florida Consortium of Public Charter Schools) and the inequities are even greater in

Florida and Texas, as can be seen in Table 6.

TABLE 6: PER STUDENT REVENUE, 2006 – 07

Texas

All Public All Charter All RMA

$10,158 $9,141 $6,710

In Texas, RMA operates successful charter schools for $3,448 less than the public schools,

34% less than the public school revenue.

Although inputs have been proven to be an unsatisfactory predictor of student achievement

(Coleman, “Equality of Educational Opportunity”, 1966; Hanushek, “Conclusions and Controversies

about the Effectiveness of School Resources”, 2008), the “bare-bones” physical plant and the “no

frills” curriculum offered by RMA could benefit from a more equitable distribution of public monies,

particularly in recruiting high quality teachers, retaining them, and rewarding their superior

performance. The centrality of the teacher in improving and sustaining student learning is

undisputable (Woessmann, “Cross-Country Evidence on Teacher Performance Pay; 2010, paper

presented to Harvard Program on Education Policy and Governance).

18

• Academic Core Curriculum: RMA adopts the local public high school curriculum to

ensure we meet state standards.

• Work Study: The School to Work Program (STW) includes

monitored/documented work study, career assessment/job preparation, pre-

employment counseling, external learning experiences, and career readiness.

• Remediation/Skill Building Classes: Reading, Writing, and Mathematics skill

tutoring are provided to increase student performance;

• Low Pupil Teacher Ratio: Direct instruction is focused on individual students with

an average ratio of 15 students to one certified teacher;

• Life Skills: Practical problem-solving techniques and Life Management Skills are

incorporated throughout the program

• Monitored Study: An individualized and evaluated program for students who

cannot be in class on a daily basis.

b. Innovative Program Components

The model builds on previous successes at RMA with the following additional elements:

i. Milburn High School OnLine: Milburn High School Online (MHSO) is accredited by the

Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), AdvancEd and the Distance Education

Training Council (DETC). MHSO offers core courses developed in accordance with national

standards and aligned with state standards, and elective courses. Milburn online courses are well

structured offering student activities and assignments clearly identified, as well as the ability to

complete work, submit assignments, and contribute to class discussion at anytime, anywhere.

Our courses offer both asynchronous and synchronous interactive learning environments and are

taught by teachers fully certified in the subject matter area. Additionally, our counseling and

PR/Award # U282M110023

Page e37

U282M110023 0023

Page 38: New APPLICATION FOR GRANTS UNDER THE · 2014. 7. 18. · U.S. Department of Education Washington, D.C. 20202-5335 APPLICATION FOR GRANTS UNDER THE 84.282M CSP Grants for Replication

19

administrative staff monitors and intervenes when students are not making timely progress or

completing course assignments. Certified subject matter teachers consistently interact with

students through instruction, classroom discussion, group projects and individual learning

opportunities using subject matter content provided through books and reading assignments

posted on the Internet.

The eCollege Learning Management System (LMS) delivery platform and the Bocavox

Maestro Student Information System (SIS) provide the cutting edge technology systems for

delivery and tracking data. MHSO averages an 80% or greater course completion rate which is a

direct result of using technology that is cutting edge and a program design that includes

consistent teacher involvement and interaction with students.

ii. Focus on Graduation and Post Secondary Success: High school graduation and

preparation for post-secondary success are the ultimate RMA goals for our students. RMA staff

members are committed to setting high expectations, holding our students accountable for their

performance and behavior, and individualizing instruction to help each student complete high

school, and reach their academic and career goals. RMA instruction incorporates life skills and

educational skills throughout the curriculum that enable our students to succeed. Dual enrollment

and advanced placement cause are options at RMA, which offer students exposure to post

secondary experience and additional credit options.

The RMA Graduation Coach provides the motivation and support students and parents need

to stay focused on reaching the student’s full potential and educational goal of graduation and

post-secondary education/training/career. The Graduation Coach provides guidance, direction

and reassurance to students as they move toward graduation and life after high school; gives

parents information and assistance with supporting their child, understanding information about

post secondary opportunities and how to make/complete applications for continuing education

20

and federally funded programs.

iii. Portfolios: Portfolios that are documented and validated learning experiences provide a

unique opportunity for Richard Milburn Academy students to showcase past and current

accomplishments. Students not only collect and demonstrate their work but also must

examine and communicate what they have learned when and how, as well as what difference this

learning has made in their lives. Because portfolios represent life experiences the process can be

highly motivational and rewarding for the student. Students receive guidance and direction to insure

the value of the experience and qualified Richard Milburn staff evaluate the validity of the portfolio

to ensure a rigorous process with the high standards for which all students are accountable.

iv. Experiential Learning: The Richard Milburn Academy program stresses experiential leaning

because hands-on student centered instructional activities are effective with our student

population. Leaning needs to be relevant and useful to students, otherwise there is little motivation

to become involved in the process. Students who have struggled in a traditional setting need

approaches to learning that have value for them, which is why our teachers devote time and energy

to ensure they are using teaching strategies to meet the diverse needs of our diverse student

population. Richard Milburn teachers collaborate to create a learning environment where students

recognize the value of the learning situation to their own life, and therefore become engaged in the

process, increase their knowledge/skills and are ready for the next related learning experience.

v. Non-traditional Scheduling Options: Richard Milburn offers flexible scheduling allowing

students, who have many factors outside school effecting and interfering with their education, a

way to complete high school that is generally not available in traditional settings. Schedules can be

staggered to accommodate student’s work schedules or family/childcare needs with staggered

starting times in the morning, early afternoon, and early evening. Block scheduling is available and

provides an option for students who need to complete courses in one

semester. Additionally, Milburn High School Online courseware is available for both course

credit and remediation.

The RMA model yields success that is cost effective and affordable across the United States.

Certainly, a model could be successful at a much higher cost per student, but the GO CAREER!

GO COLLEGE! model provides a program for $6,000 to $7,000 per student that produces

extraordinary successes for high need students. The GO CAREER! GO COLLEGE! model can

be easily replicated in any district to serve a large proportion of their high need population.

GO CAREER! GO COLLEGE! Project Partners

The primary external partners in this project are Agile Mind, Incorporated and AVID,

Incorporated. The Agile Mind system is grounded in the Charles A. Dana Center's years of

research and experience nurturing high achievement in mathematics and science. The system

builds on Dana Center studies of high-performing, high-poverty schools and districts, including

schools with exemplary high-enrollment AP calculus programs for traditionally underserved

students. The products of the Center's work, which include the Advanced Placement Program®

Mathematics Vertical Teams Toolkit and the Advanced Placement Capacity Assessment Tool (both

developed for the College Board), have set the standard of excellence for supporting successful AP

programs. Agile Mind has conducted research analyzing empirical data from more than 900,000

student users and more than 15,000 educator users of the system’s online services – and results

show significant gains for students in both math and science. Beyond these national results, the

Corpus Christi RMA campus has worked closely with Agile Mind since 2008 to improve student

math scores, and the results have been phenomenal – raising student proficiency rates on the TAKS

mathematics assessment from 20% to 95%.

Mathematics:

Agile Mind has promoted great success for RMA students in mathematics since 2008.

Committed to excellence, equity, and sustainable school capacity, Agile Mind’s mission is to

provide the programs, tools and instructional improvement systems needed to transform student

engagement and achievement through exemplary, sustainable teaching practices. When Agile

Mind first began working with the RMA Corpus Christi campus in 2008, only 20% of students

were earning proficient scores on the TAKS math assessment. With intensive teacher trainings, the

implementation of evidence-based educational tools, and technology-based learning resources all

provided through Agile Mind, 95% of Corpus Christi students earned a proficient score on the

TAKS math assessment in 2010.

Science:

Agile Mind also enhances both equity and high achievement in science. RMA will integrate

the evidence-based science educational tools, intensive teacher trainings, and technology-based

learning resources necessary to dramatically increase the rigor of core science offerings, and prepare

students to succeed at the Advanced Placement level. Agile Mind's science programs were

developed in collaboration with the Biological Sciences Curriculum Study group, which has been

nationally recognized for its excellence in science education, and the Charles A. Dana Center at The

University of Texas at Austin, widely respected for its contribution to significant gains in student

achievement in mathematics and science.

The Agile Assessment component of both the math and science programs provide teachers with

high quality assessment tools that are expertly aligned to standards, objectives, and Agile Mind

course support services – providing teachers and administrators with the resources to evaluate

student understanding of concepts and skills necessary for mastery of learning standards, success on

high-stakes exams, and proficiency in Biology, Algebra I and Geometry. The direct alignment of

each assessment item to Agile Mind course support material offers educators a comprehensive

integrated curriculum and instructional support.

AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) is an evidence-based college readiness

system that is designed to increase school-wide learning and performance. The AVID system

accelerates student learning, uses research-based methods of effective instruction, provides

meaningful and motivational professional development, and acts as a catalyst for systemic reform

and change. Although AVID serves all students, it focuses on the least served students in the

academic middle. The formula is simple - raise expectations of students and, with the AVID

support system in place, they will rise to the challenge. What differentiates AVID from other

educational reform programs is its astounding success rate. Since 1990, more than 85,500 AVID

students have graduated from high school and planned to attend college. Of the 22,210 AVID 2010

seniors who reported their plans, 91.3% intended to attend a postsecondary institution, 58.3% in

four-year institutions and 33.0% in two-year institutions. These results are what RMA desires for

its students.

State-funded, independent research, together with AVID's own data, validate that the AVID

college-readiness system works. Data shows that AVID students are more likely to take AP classes,

complete their college eligibility requirements, and get into four-year colleges than students who

don't take AVID. Almost all AVID students who participate for at least three years are accepted to

college, with roughly three quarters getting into four-year universities. AVID also helps ensure

students, once accepted to college, possess the higher-level skills they need for college success.

Particularly attractive to the Richard Milburn Academies, is the fact that AVID targets

students in the academic middle - B, C, and even D students - who have the desire to go to college

and the willingness to work hard. Like RMA, AVID recognizes that these are students who are

capable of completing rigorous curriculum but are falling short of their potential. The typical AVID

24

student looks very similar to the typical RMA student: they are typically first in their families to

attend college, and are from low-income or minority families. Through AVID, RMA will be

prepared to advance these students from current unchallenging courses into a college track.

D. Management Plan.

1. The adequacy of the management plan

Past performance is the single best predicator of future success. All four organizations involved

in this proposal, the prime contractor Richard Milburn Academy of Texas, Inc. and the sub-

contractors, Richard Milburn Academy of Florida, NESI, Inc., and Resource Management

Corporation, Inc., have operated charter schools or evaluated large social programs in the field for

decades.

In both Florida and Texas over the past eleven years years, Richard Milburn CMO has opened

17 schools in 15 districts, increased enrollment from 81 in the first year to nearly 3,000 this school

year, negotiated 25 school building leases, hired 29 school directors, and increased the teaching

staff from 9 to 263. This substantial growth was accomplished in “school districts” of incredible

size. The RMA, TX schools stretch from Beaumont to Odessa, Amarillo to Corpus Christi,

encompassing a geographic region larger than New England and New York combined. In Florida,

the schools range from Daytona to Ft. Myers in the south and Bradenton in the west, a region larger

than Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island combined. Richard Milburn CMO staff know

how to scale up, maintain and grow charter schools efficiently and effectively. Table 8 addresses

specific requirements of the federal funding:

Application Requirement How It’s Addressed

a. Describe replication/expansion objectives, and the methods to be used.

RMA plans to significantly open 6 additional academies under the proposed project. Work to open these 5 academies will begin immediately, to bring to fruition within the project period.

26

Application Requirement How It’s Addressed

b. Describe how you currently manage your schools, and how you will manage your new schools, including central office functions, governance, daily operations, financial management, human resources management, and instructional management

RMA academies are currently managed through supervised, standardized, but decentralized management tied into a cohesive, data-driven network. Each academy is managed according to a single set of principles through a common guidebook communicated and reinforced by training. Every school prepares a yearly self-assessment to demonstrate their compliance with RMA requirements, government, regulations, accrediting standards, and state and national standards.

c. Describe how you will ensure that each school will receive its commensurate share of Federal “formula” funds.

Federal “formula” funds for RMA schools are applied for and managed centrally, by the Chief Financial Officer, to ensure that each school receives its commensurate share. Since RMA’s founding all external audits have been exemplary.

d. Describe the educational program and how it will enable all students (including “educationally disadvantaged” to meet State standards; grade levels/ages, curriculum and instructional practices.

The Educational Program is described in the Quality of Design section.

e. Describe relation between new schools and chartering agency.

We will assist all schools in obtaining their own charter.

f. Describe sustainability after Federal grant ends.

RMA is designed to be sustainable through normal state and Federal funding. RMA’s ability to attract private donations, corporate partnerships and volunteers enhances the schools’ operations.

g. Describe parent and community involvement in planning, design, and implementation.

Every RMA school is designed and operated by its own community for its unique environment. Although most current RMA schools are situated in at-risk areas, every one has unique characteristics determined by the location and student population. RMA holds stakeholder meetings to determine programing, site selection and other need aspects of the new charter schools. When many of the initial plans have been determined, community meetings are then held to gather additional information,

27

Application Requirement How It’s Addressed

h. Request and justify waivers of Federal regulations needed to achieve desired results.

There are no required waivers of federal regulations for RMA.

i. Describe how grant funds will be used in conjunction with other Federal funds and matching funds.

The funds to be spent under this grant will be used to accelerate the dissemination of RMA schools. The funding under this grant will permit each RMA school to open at a more rapid pace than heretofore possible, enabling the benefits of RMA learning to reach more children more quickly.

j. Describe your equal-opportunity marketing plan.

When we open a school, we market the school openly and broadly to the local community, distributing flyers in the languages common in the community, holding open houses, and community gatherings. We distribute flyers to nearby apartments and homes. For each of the new schools, we will always include equal opportunity notices and laws.

l. Describe how you will comply with Disabilities Education Act

We will comply in every way. RMA has always been known for having a high percentage of children with disabilities. Because of our attention to the needs of every child, we have become known as the school that will embrace students that other schools shun or discourage from attending.

m. Describe significant issues in student safety, financial management, statutory/regulatory compliance (significant = could lead to revocation of charter).

RMA has no significant issues in student safety, financial management, or statutory/regulatory compliance.

n. Provide objective data showing applicant quality.

Data is described in Section A.1, A.2, and A.3 (Quality of the Eligible Applicant).

2. The business plan for improving and sustaining schools.

Management and program are data-driven. The historical data for the past decade were

accumulated and analyzed by RMA and employed in personnel and program decisions. Enrollment and

attendance data are distributed weekly, directing staffing, budgeting, recruiting refinements in real time.

A copy of the RMA weekly attendance report is included as Attachment 7.

RMA charter schools are a constant financial challenge, with sub-par state financing, a

fluctuating enrollment, and an attendance rate that necessitates close monitoring and follow up.

Consequently, a Monthly Financial Statement and accompanying analysis is prepared for RMA senior

management. This report combines staffing; financial activities for the month, quarter, year and

cumulative; and financial position.

Hiring, evaluation, promotion and salary decisions are based upon performance; not on

credentials or years of experience. All personnel decisions down to the classroom are made by the CMO

staff with substantial input from the School Directors. RMA considers its unique Educational

Performance Incentive Compact (EPIC) as the cement that holds the CMO together.

It not only recognizes and rewards school-site performance but also, through decisions as to what

criteria will be rewarded in any given year, keeps all employee attention focused upon the larger,

corporate picture. Thus, for example, School Directors might be rewarded for financial performance and

attendance in a year that the CMO selects surplus and growth as critical corporate objectives. That same

year all teachers might be rewarded for student test performance and daily attendance.

Attachment 7 presents the EPIC Plan for the 2005-06 school year in Texas. In that school year,

the directors’ performance bonus averaged 9% of their salary; and the teachers’ performance bonus

averaged 6% of salary. A total of $183,000 in performance bonuses was awarded. More importantly, the

34

Texas criteria for student performance that year were exceeded, placing RMA schools well ahead of the

Texas Alternative Education Accountability test.

3. A multi-year financial and operating model

RMA proposes to open and operate six charter schools with approximately 1,200 high need

students to provide strong evidence of our success. Our track record shows that RMA can accomplish

this task.

Capacity: In order to develop and bring to scale the proposed project, the organization must

have the capacity to expand. A small organization no matter how effective their project may be may

not have the capacity to expand. The RMA Team has this capacity in terms of corporate

administration, revenue size, and bank loan capabilities.

RMA and its partners have 1,300 employees supported by more than 80 administrative

staff including Management (18), Human Resources (20), Accounting/Finance (40), and Facilities (2)

serving approximately 2,700 high need students. The RMA Team has been in business for more than

ten years, has a combined net worth of more than $3.0 million, a bank line of credit of $2.0 million,

and the demonstrated capacity to perform this project. Furthermore, the quality and experience of our

management team demonstrate that RMA has the management capacity to develop our model and

bring it to scale. RMA’s model, GO CAREER! GO COLLEGE! for high need high school students

can be operated within the average school district per pupil costs. The best predictor of future

corporate growth and sustainability is past performance, and RMA has an enviable record in Florida

and Texas.

The ten year academic record has been established in the preceding pages of this proposal.

These accomplishments, achieved through steady growth despite inadequate state funding, are based

upon the CMO’s management style: nimble, responsive and parsimonious. And, we are confident that

these time-tested qualities will enable RMA to go to scale swiftly at the conclusion of this project.

the three CMO groups. These financial results are certified by the public accounting finance BKHM,

PA of Winter Park, FL. The healthy balance sheet for each organization is testimony to the CMO’s

management skill and clearly indicates its ability to go to scale.

understanding of the social, economic, and circumstantial barriers that impact the educational

experiences of disadvantaged, at-risk students, and their peers who are making adequate

academic progress.

The mission of Capacity Builders, Inc. is also closely aligned to the legislative intent of

the funding opportunity. The mission of Capacity Builders, Inc. is to improve organizations and

government efficiency in implementing programs by collecting and analyzing data towards a

continuous cycle of improvement. Funds received under the federal project will improve

educational quality on our campuses leading to improved academic outcomes for students, which

is a core component of the funding opportunity. Dr. Muller has specific experience in this type of

evaluation, having worked with charter schools in the past.

Capacity Builders, Inc. will undertake data collection, analysis, and reporting processes

that identify the systemic issues that positively lead us towards our goals and elements that are

barriers to our success. The project will use process and outcome evaluation techniques that link

data to project outcomes, discover patterns within the project implementation, and identify causal

relationships among the objectives and associated goals.

The proposed evaluation is intended to provide comprehensive formative and

summative information about the implementation and effectiveness of the proposed model for

adding new charter schools in six schools districts in two states. RMA is interested in receiving

detailed feedback about the implementation of its model in the six proposed new charter

schools, especially during the first several years, so that modifications can be made to improve

the implementation of the model. RMA is also interested in obtaining comprehensive

information about the effectiveness of these schools in meeting a variety of performance

objectives based on student outcomes, especially in the last 2-3 years of the grant period, so

41

that information will be available to inform decisions about possible replications of this model.

The second major component of the proposed evaluation design is to determine the

effectiveness of the new charter schools in meeting performance objectives measured by various

student outcomes. The evaluation will focus on the attainment of measurable objectives as

opposed to assessing “impact” since the nature of the Charter School Program does not lend

itself to experimental or quasi-experimental designs that permit the determination of how

students enrolled in new charter schools would perform had they not been enrolled in such

schools. On the other hand, where possible and meaningful, this evaluation will make

comparisons between students attending the RMA schools and other schools. In addition, the

evaluation will examine changes in the level of student outcomes over time to determine the

amount of progress the schools are making in addressing the academic needs of students.

The student outcomes that will be measured include attendance, graduation, dropping

out, and suspension/expulsion, as well as performance on state assessments the TAKS in Texas

in at least reading/language arts and mathematics. One of the early evaluation activities will be

to work with RMA staff to establish performance objectives based on these measures for each of

the new schools. In addition, a system for comparing the new schools’ performance on these

measures with other, similar schools based on school report cards will be developed. Finally,

these measures and others such as enrollment and number of staff will be tracked each year to

determine the progress each school has made during the grant period. Since the six schools will

not be completely operational until the second year of the grant period, the evaluation will focus

on the procedures for collecting student outcome data during the first year. The first annual

evaluation report will contain only information about the systems developed for measuring these

outcomes. Subsequent annual evaluation reports will contain summative information about the

effectiveness of the schools in terms of the student outcomes. The evaluation plan is described

Re: Renewal Status for Richard Milburn Academy (Fort Worth) (CON 220812)

Dear Mr. Gayton:

The charter renewal application for Richard Milburn Academy (Fort Worth} has been received by U1e Texas Education Agency. As stated in 19 Texas Administrative Code {TAC}§100.1031(a), if a charter holder makes timely and sufficient application for renewal of an open-enrollment charter, the existing open-enrollment charter does not expire until the commissioner of edwcation has finally granted or denied the application.

As authorized in Texas Education Code (TEC), §12.115, the commissioner may modify, place on probation, revoke or deny the renewal of the charter of an open-enrollment charter school if the commissioner determines that the charter holder: 1) committed a material violation of the charter; including failure to satisfy accountability provisions prescribed by the charter; 2) failed to satisfy generally accepted accounting standards of fiscal management; 3) failed to protect the health, safety, or welfare of the students enrolled at the school; or 4} failed to comply with the requirements of TEC, Chapter 12, Subchapter D or other applicable laws or rules. Rules at 19 TAC §100.1031 contain additional information about charter renewaL

The charter renewal process consists of reviews in the areas of accreditation status, student performance, business operations and fiscal management, data reporting, program effectiveness, and compliance. Before a renewat decision can be issued by the commissioner, the charter must receive clearance from the following areas: Accountability Ratings, Charter Schoo[ Administration, Child Nutrition, Fin mcial Audits. Grants Management, Legal Services, PEIMS Data Reporting, Program Monitoring and Interventions, IDEA Coordination, and Student Assessment. Our records show that your charter school is currently not cleared in the following areas:

• Accountability Ratings

Program Monitoring and Interventions

Please note that should additional areas of concern arise after the date of this letter, a!! areas will need to be clear before renewal is considered by the commissioner. Once all areas have been cleared and the commissioner has determined that renewal is appropriate, you wi[l be notified in writing that the renewal has been granted.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Board of Directors Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. McQueeney, Texas

Members of the Board of Directors:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial position of Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. (a nonprofit organization) (the “charter holder”) as of August 31, 2010, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the charter holder’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived from the charter holder’s 2009 financial statements which were audited by us and upon which our report dated January 21, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the charter holder as of August 31, 2010, and the changes in its net assets and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 20, 2011, on our consideration of the charter holder’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

The budgetary comparison schedules on pages 31-33 are not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Texas Education Code. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general-purpose financial statements of the charter holder as a whole. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, and is not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements. The specific-purpose financial statements and schedules on pages 16-41 are likewise presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

1 ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. (the “charter holder” or the “Organization”) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated in the State of Texas in 2000. The governing body of the Organization is the not-for-profit organization’s Board of Directors, which is composed of four members. The Board of Directors is selected pursuant to the bylaws of the Organization and has the authority to make decisions, appoint the chief executive officer of the Organization, and significantly influence operations. The Board of Directors has the primary accountability for the fiscal affairs of the Organization. The Organization provided general education services for students in grades nine through twelve in five individual charter school campuses in Texas. Effective January 1, 2009, the Organization increased the number of individual charter school campuses from three to five. Three of the individual charter schools operate under a single charter of the Organization’s Odessa campus (see Note 2). Each individual school operates under an open enrollment charter granted by the State of Texas Board of Education. One charter was renewed for a period of ten years, which ends July 31, 2015, and is subject to review and renewal prior to the expiration date of the charter. The remaining charters have submitted an application for renewal and the existing charters will not expire until the Texas Education Agency (“TEA”) has made a decision regarding the applications. The Organization is part of the public school system of the State of Texas and, therefore, is entitled to distributions from the Foundation School Program, as well as other state and federal grants received through the State of Texas. The Organization does not have the authority to impose ad valorem taxes or to change the price of tuition. Since the Organization received funding from local, state, and federal government sources, it must comply with the requirements of the entities providing those funds. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements During fiscal year 2010, the Organization adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) related to disclosure of subsequent events. These changes require the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date (that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued). The Organization has evaluated subsequent events through January 20, 2011, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. The Organization has adopted changes issued by the FASB related to authoritative hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) during its year ended August 31, 2010. These changes establish the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.

The Organization adopted the ASC guidance relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes during the year ended August 31, 2010. This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position that an entity takes or expects to take in a tax return. The Organization recognizes tax benefits only to the extent that the Organization believes it is “more likely than not” that its tax positions will be sustained upon an examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or the applicable state taxing authority. This pronouncement is applicable to not-for-profit organizations that may be conducting unrelated business activities, which are potentially subject to income taxes, including state income taxes. The Organization assesses its income tax positions, including its continuing tax status as a not-for-profit entity, and recognizes tax benefits only to the extent that the Organization believes it is “more likely than not” that its tax positions will be sustained upon an examination by the IRS. Accordingly, there is no provision for Federal income taxes in the financial statements, as the Organization believes all tax positions, including its continuing status as a not-for-profit entity, have a greater than a 50% chance of realization after an IRS audit. State income taxes, which may be due in certain jurisdictions, have been assessed following the same “more likely than not” measurement threshold. At adoption of the guidance, the Organization did not record any cumulative effect adjustment, and it did not accrue interest expense or penalties related to any uncertain Federal or State income tax positions. Interest and penalties, if incurred, would be recognized as a component of income tax expense. There are no open Federal or State tax years under audit. Basis of presentation The accompanying general-purpose financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the FASB ASC. The accounting system is organized pursuant to the Special Supplement to Financial Accounting and Reporting – Non-profit Charter School Chart of Accounts, a module of the TEA Financial Accountability Resource Guide. The Organization has adopted the FASB ASC guidance related to contributions received and contributions made and financial statements of not-for-profit organizations. This guidance requires the organization to distinguish between contributions that increase permanently restricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets and unrestricted net assets. It also requires recognition of contributions, including contributed services meeting certain criteria, at fair values. This guidance also establishes standards for general-purpose external financial statements of not-for-profit organizations and requires a statement of financial position, a statement of activities, a statement of cash flows and a statement of functional expenses.

Net assets and revenues, expenses, gains, and losses are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets of the Organization and changes therein are classified and reported as follows:

Unrestricted – net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions.

Temporarily restricted – net assets subject to donor-imposed restrictions that may or will be met, either by actions of the Organization and/or the passage of time.

Permanently restricted – net assets required to be maintained in perpetuity with only

the income to be used for the Organization’s activities due to donor-imposed restrictions. Support that is restricted by the donor is reported as an increase in temporarily restricted or permanently restricted net assets in the reporting period in which the support is recognized. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Revenues received that are temporarily restricted whose restrictions are met in the same year as received are shown as unrestricted revenues, which is a policy that has been applied consistently from period to period. The financial statements include certain prior-year summarized comparative information in total but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Organization’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, from which the summarized information was derived. Functional expenses Since all expenses are incurred in connection with school operations, a statement of functional expenses is not presented. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications were made in the 2009 amounts to conform to their classifications in fiscal year 2010. Cash and cash equivalents The Organization’s cash consists primarily of demand deposits with financial institutions. All funds on deposit are continuously secured in accordance with the Texas Public Funds Collateral Act, Chapter 2257 of the Texas Government Code.

Capitalized assets and depreciation Capital assets acquired, which include furniture, fixtures and equipment, are reported at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, in the general-purpose and specific-purpose financial statements. The Organization’s policy is to capitalize assets that have an estimated useful life of more than one year. Expenditures for additions, major renewals and betterments are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Donated assets are recorded at fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows: Years Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 – 5 Use of estimates In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial position and affect revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. In addition, Foundation School Program revenue in the accompanying financial statements is based upon the allocation of these funds by the TEA at the time of issuance of these financial statements. The allocation by the TEA is subject to audit and adjustment in future years and, as such, all revisions to the allocation after issuance of the financial statements are adjusted prospectively (see Note 8). 2 ORGANIZATION RESTRUCTURING In November 2008, an agreement was reached between the Organization, Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. (an entity related by common board membership) and the TEA. Pursuant to this agreement, Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. agreed to surrender the open-enrollment charter of its Midland and Lubbock campuses to the TEA. The purpose of the surrender was to consolidate the campuses under a single charter with the Organization’s Odessa campus. In applying for and receiving the Midland and Lubbock campuses as expansion campuses, the Organization assumed all liabilities and responsibility for all debts, obligations, liabilities and other lawful duties and obligations of the two open-enrollment charters surrendered. Effective January 1, 2009, the Organization completed the transfer of all assets, liabilities and net deficits of Midland and Lubbock from Richard Milburn Academy, Inc., and recorded the transfer at historical net carrying value as of that date. The operations of the Midland and Lubbock campuses from January 1, 2009 through August 31, 2009 are included in the statements of activities for the year ended August 31, 2009, and are included within the operations of Odessa as these locations are now operating under its charter. Effective January 1, 2009, the Organization increased the number of individual charter schools from three to five. Three of the individual charter schools operate under a single charter of the Organization’s Odessa campus.

3 DUE FROM/TO GOVERMENTAL AGENCIES Due from governmental agencies in the accompanying statements of financial position include approximately $228,000 and $28,000 in funds due from federal agencies and approximately $325,000 and $303,000 due from TEA as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Based on the collectibility of funds from these sources, in the opinion of management, an allowance for doubtful accounts is not considered necessary. 4 FURNITURE, FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT Furniture, fixtures and equipment, net, as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 consisted of the following:

2010 2009

Furniture, fixtures and equipment 814,806$ 764,842$ Less: accumulated depreciation (694,407) (601,761)

Furniture, fixtures and equipment, net 120,399$ 163,081$

Capitalized assets acquired with public funds received by the Organization for the operation of the individual schools of the Organization constitute public property pursuant to Chapter 12 of the Texas Education Code. These capitalized asset amounts are identified on the Schedules of Capital Assets for each individual charter school by respective charter on pages 28-30. Depreciation expense for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $93,000 and $115,000, respectively. 5 PENSION PLAN OBLIGATIONS Defined benefit plan The Organization contributes to the Teacher Retirement System of Texas (the “System”), a public employee retirement system. The System is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan with one exception: all risks and costs are not borne by the Organization, but are the liability of the State of Texas. The System provides service retirement and disability retirement benefits and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The System operates under the authority of provisions contained primarily in Texas Government Code, Title 8, Public Retirement Systems, Subtitle C, Teacher Retirement System of Texas, which is subject to amendment by the Texas Legislature. Under provisions in State law, plan members are required to contribute 7.4% of their annual covered salary, and the State of Texas contributes an amount equal to 6.0% of the

Organization’s covered payroll. Additionally, the Organization contributes 6.58% of the employees’ annual covered salary during the first three months of employment, and 0.55% thereafter. The Organization’s contributions to the System for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $87,000 and $175,000, respectively, and were equal to the required contributions for each year. 401(k) plan The Organization also participates in a profit-sharing plan of a related party. The plan operates under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, whereby all eligible employees are entitled to defer up to $16,500 during the 2010 and 2009 calendar years. Substantially all employees are eligible to participate in the plan depending on the length of service and attainment of minimum age requirements. Under the terms of the plan, the Organization contributes an amount to the plan at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Employer contributions to the plan in fiscal 2010 and 2009 were approximately $800 and $400, respectively. 6 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During the routine course of business, invoices and payroll, which apply to both the Organization and an affiliate, Richard Milburn Academy, Inc., may be paid by a single entity creating an affiliate receivable or payable. The Organization tracks the amounts due to or from each affiliated entity or school separately, and these amounts are presented separately in the accompanying financial statements. Amounts due to affiliates as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $15,000 and $32,000, respectively. 7 RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Workers’ compensation coverage, employee health, general liability, professional liability and property coverages are being provided through purchased commercial insurance with minimum deductibles for each line of coverage. Settled claims resulting from these risks have historically not exceeded commercial coverage. 8 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Grants The Organization participates in state and federal grant programs, which are governed by various rules and regulations of the grantor agencies. Costs charged to the respective grant programs are subject to audit and adjustment by the grantor agencies; therefore, to the extent that the Organization has not complied with the rules and regulations governing the grants, refunds of any money received may be required and the collectibility of any related receivable as of August 31, 2010 may be impaired.

The Organization is required to spend a minimum amount of its allocation of special program allotments from the TEA during the year they are awarded. As of August 31, 2010, management does not believe there are any amounts due to the TEA for unexpended special program allotments. In the opinion of management, there are no significant unrecorded contingent liabilities relating to compliance with the rules and regulations governing these grants. Lease commitments The Organization leases its facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, which contain varying renewal options. Approximate aggregate remaining minimum rental commitments as of August 31, 2010 under these leases are summarized as follows:

Fiscal Year Ending August 31,2011 605,679$ 2012 638,257 2013 431,703 2014 153,446 2015 138,276

Total 1,967,361$

Rent expense for all operating leases for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $618,000 and $540,000, respectively. Subsequent to August 31, 2010, the Organization entered into a lease agreement, which requires monthly payments of $7,562 from October 1, 2010 through September 1, 2011. Management fees The Organization contracts with a management company for management and administrative services. The management agreements provide, among other things, for the payment of a management fee calculated based upon the gross revenues of each individual school within the Organization. The management agreements were executed following a full and open competition and were approved by the Board of Directors. For the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, the Organization has incurred approximately $1,356,000 and $1,073,000 of management fees, respectively. Amounts due to the management company as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 are approximately $468,000 and $636,000, respectively, and are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying financial statements. State funding The Organization’s revenue stream is largely dependent upon the general state of the economy and the amounts allotted to the TEA by the state legislature. The allocation by the TEA is

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED

ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Board of Directors Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. McQueeney, Texas

Members of the Board of Directors: We have audited the financial statements of Richard Milburn Academy/TX Inc., (a nonprofit organization) (the “Organization”), as of and for the year ended August 31, 2010, and have issued our report thereon dated January 20, 2011. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, we identified a deficiency in internal control over financial reporting, described as finding 2010-1 in the accompanying schedule of findings and

questioned costs that we consider to be significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Organization’s financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2010-3 and 2010-4. The Organization’s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and in the corrective action plan on pages 54-57. We did not audit the Organization’s response and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Directors, management of the Organization, the Texas Education Agency and federal awarding agencies and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL

OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133 Board of Directors Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. McQueeney, Texas Members of the Board of Directors: Compliance We have audited the compliance of Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. (a nonprofit organization) (the “Organization”) with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended August 31, 2010. The Organization’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is the responsibility of the Organization’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Organization’s compliance based on our audit. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Organization’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the Organization’s compliance with those requirements. In our opinion, the Organization complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended August 31, 2010. However, the results of our auditing procedures disclosed an instance of noncompliance with those requirements, which is required to be reported in accordance with OMB Circular A-133 and which is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2010-2.

Internal Control Over Compliance Management of the Organization is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Organization’s internal control over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over compliance. A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. The Organization’s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and in the corrective action plan on pages 54-57. We did not audit the Organization’s response and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Directors, management of the Organization, the Texas Education Agency and federal awarding agencies and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (continued)

Section II - Financial Statement Findings Finding No. 2010-1 – Significant Deficiency Statement of condition:

The Organization’s locations did not consistently communicate all adjustments and disposals of fixed assets to the corporate office. In addition, the fixed asset schedules were not reconciled between the location’s listing and the corporate office’s listing on a timely basis.

Context:

During our audit procedures, we noted that adjustments and disposals were not consistently communicated to the corporate office. Additionally, the fixed asset schedules have not been reconciled to the individual location’s fixed asset listings resulting in different fixed asset schedules for the same respective location.

Effect of condition:

The Organization did not have formal policies and procedures in place to mitigate reporting risks in relation to the Organization’s fixed assets.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (continued)

Context:

If a charter school is rated acceptable or higher, then a charter school employee may serve as a member of the governing body of the charter holder or the charter school if the employees do not constitute a quorum of the governing body or any committee of the governing body.

Effect of condition:

The Organization is not in compliance with state requirements concerning the governing body of the Houston charter school.

Recommendation:

We recommend that the Organization implement controls over school employees on the respective governing boards to ensure that school employees do not serve on the governing boards if the charter school is not rated acceptable or higher.

Management’s response: Management agreed with this finding and will implement formal policies and procedures to improve upon their compliance with state award requirements. See corrective action plan on pages 54-57.

Section V – Status of Prior Year Audit Findings Finding No. 2009-1: Fixed asset schedule reconciliation During our consideration of the Organization’s controls over reporting fixed assets, we noted that the Organization’s locations did not consistently communicate all adjustments and disposals of fixed assets to the corporate office. In addition, the fixed asset schedules were not reconciled between the location’s listing and the corporate office’s listing on a timely basis. This item is repeated as Finding No. 2010-1. Finding No. 2009-2: Professional development expenditure minimums The Organization did not have any formal monitoring controls in place to ensure that it spent the minimum amount required for professional development expenditures as required by certain Federal grants the Organization received. This item was resolved during the current year. Finding No. 2009-3: Student attendance discrepancies The Organization’s Houston location had material discrepancies in the recording of student attendance as compared to the source documentation, or the source documentation could not be located. In addition, the Organization’s internal audit procedures identified areas of noncompliance and incorrect reporting. However, there were several instances where the discrepancies were not timely corrected.

RMA/TX, Inc. will adhere to the Federal Guidelines for maintaining documentation on employee time and effort allocation rates for payroll expenses charged to Federal programs. A review of internal processes was conducted and a determination was made that our organization would move to an electronic purchasing system. We have contracted for services with an ESC to provide services for all Federal grant expenditures, including tracking of salary paid from Federal funds. Documentation will be sent to the State Director’s Office for verification of accuracy as compared to time recorded on company timecards. Reclassification of federal payroll dollars will be done if inaccuracies are not corrected within a 30 day time period so that Federal guidelines are adhered to properly. The Organization’s Human Resources Department will be notified should this occur so a new Personnel Action Form (PAF) can be initiated to reflect the change of fund source.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Board of Directors Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. McQueeney, Texas

Members of the Board of Directors:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial position of Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. (a nonprofit organization) (the “charter holder”) as of August 31, 2010, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the charter holder’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has been derived from the charter holder’s 2009 financial statements which were audited by us and upon which our report dated January 21, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the charter holder as of August 31, 2010, and the changes in its net assets and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 20, 2011, on our consideration of the charter holder’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

The budgetary comparison schedules on pages 43-46 are not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Texas Education Code. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general-purpose financial statements of the charter holder as a whole. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, and is not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements. The specific-purpose financial statements and schedules on pages 17-54 are likewise presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

1 ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. (the “charter holder” or the “Organization”) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated in the State of Virginia in 1998. The governing body of the Organization is the not-for-profit organization’s Board of Directors, which is composed of four members. The Board of Directors is selected pursuant to the bylaws of the Organization and has the authority to make decisions, appoint the chief executive officer of the Organization, and significantly influence operations. The Board of Directors has the primary accountability for the fiscal affairs of the Organization. The Organization provided general education services for students in grades nine through twelve in four individual charter schools in Texas. Effective January 1, 2009, the Organization operated four individual charter schools (see Note 2). Each individual school operates under an open enrollment charter granted by the State of Texas Board of Education. Each charter was renewed for a period of ten years, which end between July 31, 2013 and July 31, 2015, and are subject to review and renewal prior to the expiration dates of the charters. The Organization is part of the public school system of the State of Texas and, therefore, is entitled to distributions from the Foundation School Program, as well as other state grants and federal grants received through the State of Texas. The Organization does not have the authority to impose ad valorem taxes or to change the price of tuition. Since the Organization received funding from local, state, and federal government sources, it must comply with the requirements of the entities providing those funds. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements During fiscal year 2010, the Organization adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) related to disclosure of subsequent events. These changes require the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date (that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued). The Organization has evaluated subsequent events through January 20, 2011, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. The Organization has adopted changes issued by the FASB related to authoritative hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) during its year ended August 31, 2010. These changes establish the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The Organization adopted the ASC guidance relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes during the year ended August 31, 2010. This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position that an entity takes or expects to take in a tax return. The Organization recognizes tax benefits only to the extent that the Organization believes it is “more likely than not” that its tax

positions will be sustained upon an examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or the applicable state taxing authority. This pronouncement is applicable to not-for-profit organizations that may be conducting unrelated business activities, which are potentially subject to income taxes, including state income taxes. The Organization assesses its income tax positions, including its continuing tax status as a not-for-profit entity, and recognizes tax benefits only to the extent that the Organization believes it is “more likely than not” that its tax positions will be sustained upon an examination by the IRS. Accordingly, there is no provision for Federal income taxes in the financial statements, as the Organization believes all tax positions, including its continuing status as a not-for-profit entity, have a greater than a 50% chance of realization after an IRS audit. State income taxes, which may be due in certain jurisdictions, have been assessed following the same “more likely than not” measurement threshold. At adoption of the guidance, the Organization did not record any cumulative effect adjustment, and it did not accrue interest expense or penalties related to any uncertain Federal or State income tax positions. Interest and penalties, if incurred, would be recognized as a component of income tax expense. There are no open Federal or State tax years under audit. Basis of presentation The accompanying general-purpose financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with the FASB ASC. The accounting system is organized pursuant to the Special Supplement to Financial Accounting and Reporting – Non-profit Charter School Chart of Accounts, a module of the Texas Education Agency (“TEA”) Financial Accountability Resource Guide. The Organization has adopted FASB ASC guidance related to contributions received and contributions made and financial statements of not-for-profit organizations. This guidance requires the organization to distinguish between contributions that increase permanently restricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets and unrestricted net assets. It also requires recognition of contributions, including contributed services meeting certain criteria, at fair values. This guidance also establishes standards for general-purpose external financial statements of not-for-profit organizations and requires a statement of financial position, a statement of activities, a statement of cash flows and a statement of functional expenses.

Net assets and revenues, expenses, gains, and losses are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets of the Organization and changes therein are classified and reported as follows:

Unrestricted – net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions.

Temporarily restricted – net assets subject to donor-imposed restrictions that may or will be met, either by actions of the Organization and/or the passage of time.

Permanently restricted – net assets required to be maintained in perpetuity with only

the income to be used for the Organization’s activities due to donor-imposed restrictions. Support that is restricted by the donor is reported as an increase in temporarily restricted or permanently restricted net assets in the reporting period in which the support is recognized. When a restriction expires, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Revenues received that are temporarily restricted whose restrictions are met in the same year as received are shown as unrestricted revenues, which is a policy that has been applied consistently from period to period. The financial statements include certain prior-year summarized comparative information in total but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Organization’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, from which the summarized information was derived. Functional expenses Since all expenses are incurred in connection with school operations, a statement of functional expenses is not presented. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications were made in the 2009 amounts to conform to their classifications in fiscal year 2010. Cash and cash equivalents The Organization’s cash consists primarily of demand deposits with financial institutions. All funds on deposit are continuously secured in accordance with the Texas Public Funds Collateral Act, Chapter 2257 of the Texas Government Code.

Capitalized assets and depreciation Capital assets acquired, which include furniture, fixtures and equipment, are reported at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, in the general-purpose and specific-purpose financial statements. The Organization’s policy is to capitalize assets that have an estimated useful life of more than one year. Expenditures for additions, major renewals and betterments are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Donated assets are recorded at fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows: Years Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 – 5 Use of estimates In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial position and affect revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Foundation School Program revenue in the accompanying financial statements is based upon the allocation of these funds by the TEA at the time of issuance of these financial statements. The allocation by the TEA is subject to audit and adjustment in future years and, as such, all revisions to the allocation after issuance of the financial statements are adjusted prospectively (see Note 8). 2 ORGANIZATION RESTRUCTURING In November 2008, an agreement was reached between the Organization, Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc., an entity related by common board membership, and the TEA. Pursuant to this agreement, the Organization agreed to surrender the open-enrollment charter of its Midland and Lubbock campuses to the TEA. The purpose of the surrender was to consolidate the campuses under a single charter with the Odessa campus of Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. In applying for and receiving the Midland and Lubbock campuses as expansion campuses, Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. assumed all liabilities and responsibility for all debts, obligations, liabilities and other lawful duties and obligations of the two open-enrollment charters surrendered. Effective January 1, 2009, the Organization completed the transfer of all assets, liabilities, and net deficits of Midland and Lubbock to Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc. and recorded the transfer at historical net carrying value as of that date. The operations of the Midland and Lubbock campuses from September 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008 are included in the statements of activities for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009. From then on they are included within the operations of Odessa as these locations are now operating under its charter.

3 DUE FROM/TO GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES Due from governmental agencies in the accompanying statements of financial position include approximately $118,000 and $110,000 in funds due from federal agencies and approximately $159,000 and $280,000 due from the TEA as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Based on the collectibility of funds from these sources, in the opinion of management, an allowance for doubtful accounts is not considered necessary. Due to governmental agencies in the accompanying statements of financial position include approximately $70,000 and $38,000 due to state agencies as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and are included within liabilities of the discontinued school. 4 FURNITURE, FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT Furniture, fixtures and equipment, net, as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 from continuing operations consisted of the following:

2010 2009

Furniture, fixtures and equipment 402,072$ 344,753$ Less: accumulated depreciation (333,378) (301,180)

Furniture, fixtures and equipment, net 68,694$ 43,573$

Capitalized assets acquired with public funds received by the Organization for the operation of the individual schools of Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. constitute public property pursuant to Chapter 12 of the Texas Education Code. These capitalized asset amounts are identified on the Schedule of Capital Assets for each individual charter school by respective charter on pages 39-42. Depreciation expense from continuing operations for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $32,000 in each year. 5 PENSION PLAN OBLIGATIONS Defined benefit plan The Organization contributes to the Teacher Retirement System of Texas (the “System”), a public employee retirement system. The System is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan with one exception: all risks and costs are not borne by the Organization, but are the liability of the State of Texas. The System provides service retirement and disability retirement benefits and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The System operates under the authority of provisions contained primarily in Texas Government Code, Title 8, Public Retirement Systems, Subtitle C, Teacher Retirement System of Texas, which is subject to amendment by the Texas Legislature.

Under provisions in State law, plan members are required to contribute 7.4% of their annual covered salary, and the State of Texas contributes an amount equal to 6.0% of the Organization’s covered payroll. Additionally, the Organization contributes 6.58% of the employees’ annual covered salary during the first three months of employment, and 0.55% thereafter. The Organization’s contributions to the System for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $81,000 and $56,000, respectively, and were equal to the required contributions for each year. 401(k) plan The Organization also participates in a profit-sharing plan of a related party. The plan operates under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, whereby all eligible employees are entitled to defer up to $16,500 during the 2010 and 2009 calendar years. Substantially all employees are eligible to participate in the plan depending on the length of service and attainment of minimum age requirements. Under the terms of the plan, the Organization contributes an amount to the plan at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Organization’s contributions to the plan in fiscal 2010 and 2009 were approximately $2,000 in each year. 6 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During the routine course of business, invoices and payroll, which apply to both the Organization and an affiliate, Richard Milburn Academy/TX, Inc., may be paid by a single entity creating an affiliate receivable or payable. The Organization tracks the amounts due to or from each affiliated entity or school separately, and these amounts are presented separately in the accompanying financial statements. Amounts due from affiliates as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 are approximately $20,000 and $14,000, respectively. 7 RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Workers’ compensation coverage, employee health, general liability, professional liability and property coverages are being provided through purchased commercial insurance with minimum deductibles for each line of coverage. Settled claims resulting from these risks have historically not exceeded commercial coverage. 8 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Grants The Organization participates in state and federal grant programs, which are governed by various rules and regulations of the grantor agencies. Costs charged to the respective grant programs are subject to audit and adjustment by the grantor agencies; therefore, to the extent that the Organization has not complied with the rules and regulations governing the grants, refunds of any money received may be required and the collectibility of any related receivable as of August 31, 2010 may be impaired.

The Organization is required to spend a minimum amount of its allocation of special program allotments from the TEA during the year they are awarded. As of August 31, 2010, management does not believe there are any amounts due to the TEA for unexpended special program allotments. In the opinion of management, there are no significant unrecorded contingent liabilities relating to compliance with the rules and regulations governing these grants. Lease commitments The Organization’s continuing operations lease facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, which contain varying renewal options. Approximate aggregate remaining minimum rental commitments as of August 31, 2010 under these leases are summarized as follows:

Fiscal Year Ending August 31,2011 391,600$ 2012 328,294 2013 260,577 2014 96,912 2015 85,250

Total 1,162,633$

Rent expense for all operating leases for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $518,000 and $530,000, respectively. Management fees The Organization contracts with a management company for management and administrative services. The management agreements provide, among other things, for the payment of a management fee calculated based upon the gross revenues of each individual school within the Organization. The management agreements were executed following a full and open competition bidding process and were approved by the Board of Directors. For the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, the Organization has incurred approximately $1,118,000 and $1,146,000 of management fees, respectively. Amounts due to the management company as of August 31, 2010 and 2009 are approximately $428,000 and $298,000, respectively, and are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying financial statements. State funding The Organization’s revenue stream is largely dependent upon the general state of the economy and the amounts allotted to the TEA by the state legislature. The allocation by the TEA is subject to audit and adjustment in future years and, as such, all revisions to the allocation after issuance of the financial statements are adjusted prospectively.

9 SCHOOL CLOSING On July 28, 2010, the Organization decided to close the Beaumont school due to financial reasons. All furniture and fixtures were subsequently redistributed to the Organization’s remaining campuses as directed by the TEA.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED

ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Board of Directors Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. McQueeney, Texas Members of the Board of Directors: We have audited the financial statements of Richard Milburn Academy, Inc., (a nonprofit organization) (the “Organization”), as of and for the year ended August 31, 2010, and have issued our report thereon dated January 20, 2011. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over financial reporting. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, we identified a deficiency in internal control over financial reporting, described as finding 2010-1 in the accompanying schedule of findings and

questioned costs that we consider to be a significant deficiency in internal control over financial reporting. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Organization’s financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2010-2, 2010-3 and 2010-4. The Organization’s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and in the corrective action plan on pages 67-70. We did not audit the Organization’s response and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Directors, management of the Organization, the Texas Education Agency and federal awarding agencies and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL

OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133 Board of Directors Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. McQueeney, Texas Members of the Board of Directors: Compliance We have audited the compliance of Richard Milburn Academy, Inc. (a nonprofit organization) (the “Organization”) with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended August 31, 2010. The Organization’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is the responsibility of the Organization’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Organization’s compliance based on our audit. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Organization’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the Organization’s compliance with those requirements. In our opinion, the Organization complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended August 31, 2010. However, the results of our auditing procedures disclosed an instance of noncompliance with those requirements, which is required to be reported in

accordance with OMB Circular A-133 and which is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2010-2. Internal Control Over Compliance Management of the Organization is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Organization’s internal control over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Organization’s internal control over compliance. A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. The Organization’s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and in the corrective action plan on pages 67-70. We did not audit the Organization’s response and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Directors, management of the Organization, the Texas Education Agency and federal awarding agencies and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Section II - Financial Statement Findings Finding No. 2010-1 – Significant Deficiency Statement of condition:

The Organization’s locations did not consistently communicate all adjustments and disposals of fixed assets to the corporate office. In addition, the fixed asset schedules were not reconciled between the location’s listing and the corporate office’s listing on a timely basis.

During our audit procedures, we noted that adjustments and disposals were not consistently communicated to the corporate office. Additionally, the fixed asset schedules have not been reconciled to the individual location’s fixed asset listings resulting in different fixed asset schedules for the same respective location.

Effect of condition:

The Organization did not have formal policies and procedures in place to mitigate reporting risks in relation to the Organization’s fixed assets.

Recommendation:

We recommend that the Organization implement formal policies and procedures to ensure that all adjustments and disposals are communicated in a timely manner to corporate and that an annual reconciliation be performed for all locations.

Management’s response: Management agreed with this finding and will implement formal policies and procedures to improve upon their internal control over financial reporting. See corrective action plan on pages 67-70.

employees do not constitute a quorum of the governing body or any committee of the governing body.

Effect of condition:

Implementation 2010-2: Federal Awards and Time and Effort Certain Federal programs require recipients to maintain documentation on employee time and effort allocation rates for payroll expenses charged to Federal programs. The Organization could not provide documentation on the employee time and effort allocation rates for payroll expenses charged to Federal programs.

RMA, Inc. will adhere to the Federal Guidelines for maintaining documentation on employee time and effort allocation rates for payroll expenses charged to Federal programs. A review of internal processes was conducted and a determination was made that our organization would move to an electronic purchasing system. We have contracted for services with an ESC to provide services for all Federal grant expenditures, including tracking of salary paid from Federal funds. Documentation will be sent to the State Director’s Office for verification of accuracy as compared to time recorded on company timecards. Reclassification of Federal payroll dollars will be done if inaccuracies are not corrected within a 30 day time period so that Federal guidelines are adhered to properly. The Organization’s Human Resources Department will be notified should this occur so a new Personnel Action Form (PAF) can be initiated to reflect the change of fund source.
