General Elements. Students attending WPCS and the STEM Academy will see substantive differences from other area educational opportunities, including:
a) An Extended academic day;
b) Study of a second language;
c) Required Homework;
d) Written and signed disciplinary policy; and
e) Required dress code. All academic programs are differentiated through a team approach, allowing teachers to teach from their strengths. Teachers may specialize in subject areas, allowing them to focus on teaching as well as exposing students to different teaching personalities. Time will be scheduled to provide teachers with time to collaborate and participate in professional development to assure team success. WPCS will leverage the local community resources and opportunities for experiential learning through community involvement, expeditionary/field learning, service projects, and internships. The school intends for each student to obtain a sense of community and neighborhood that will provide a lifelong sense of belonging and confidence. The curriculum of WPCS will contain both traditional academic subjects and an additional language that make the Charter unique. The Idaho State Department of Education’s standards serve as benchmarks. The CORE Knowledge curriculum areas include reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. They are enhanced with a foreign language, art, music, health and physical education. WPCS’s core values are reflected in its philosophy and mission statement. It is highly important for students to be challenged, to be taught as individuals, and to learn in a safe, educational environment that allows them to learn about today’s world and equips them with the tools to reshape and improve the world of tomorrow. WPCS intends to meet the goal of producing students who possess the academic and personal habits and attitudes desired of an educated citizen in the 21st century. Goal attainment will be assessed by ongoing student testing and staff professional development. The receiving teacher will have intimate knowledge of curriculum and the strengths and weakness of the students. The school will know if it accomplishes its goals by the continuing success rate of its students and by their scores on standardized tests.

General Elements. 3.1 Usually this is a simple statement of the currency to be used for all financial transactions under the treaty.
General Elements. 3.1 A statement of which party or parties have the right of inspection of the other’s records (usually no more than one a year).
3.2 A general statement of what records may be accessed. These records include, but are not limited to, underwriting files, claim files, billing records and valuation records.
General Elements. 3.1 Under a coinsurance or modified coinsurance treaty, it may be provided that the reinsurer will follow the practice of the ceding company without limitation. More commonly, there may be some limitation imposed (e.g., the reinsurer will reimburse dividends up to a specified limit such as the level of the dividend scale in effect at the time the reinsurance agreement became effective as to the policies in question). A major reason for such a limitation is that the ceding company may declare dividends on the basis of experience other than the reinsured policies and the reinsurer may experience less favorable results than those reflected in the ceding company’s dividend scale. Under modified coinsurance, the ceding company holds the assets so that the reinsurer does not have control over the investment results which typically make up a major part of dividends. Such a limitation may be subject to periodic update.
3.1.1 The ceding company should promptly notify the reinsurer of any change in the dividend scale applicable to policies reinsured on a coinsurance or modified coinsurance basis. This is especially important when the reinsurer has agreed to follow the dividend scale(s) of the ceding company.
3.2 If the treaty does not provide for the reinsurer to automatically follow any increases in policy dividends declared by the ceding company, the two parties should make a good faith effort to agree on the action to be taken as a result of the change in the dividend scale.
3.3 It may be provided that the reinsurer will provide a set level of reinsurance allowances in lieu of participating in policy dividends declared by the ceding company.
3.4 In the case of YRT, it is common to reinsure policies involving term additions on a level net amount at risk basis. This might be true even when the term additions provide more or less than the additional amount of insurance necessary, when added to the base policy net amount at risk, to maintain a level net amount at risk.
3.4.1 Some reinsurers may insist that the term additions may be reinsured only if they were elected at the time the policy was issued. Any later election might be subject to facultative approval.
General Elements. 3.1 A statement of whether of not the reinsurer will reimburse the ceding company of state premium taxes paid by the ceding company of the portion of its premium paid to the reinsurer as a reinsurance premium.
3.2 Reimbursement is usually not provided for unless the reinsurer itself is not taxed directly on its own premiums.
3.3 The tax rate or the approach to determining the appropriate tax rate is usually stated.
General Elements. 3.1 This is an amount below which reinsurance will not be ceded. Usually, the amount is a “nuisance” amount, designed to assure that the expense of administering related reinsurance transactions don’t exceed the value of the reinsurance. With the increased automation of reinsurance administration and reinsurance claim recoveries, use of a minimum cession has decreased significantly.
General Elements. 3.1 Applications, reinstatement rules, and conditional receipt forms may be included in the treaty. Any supplemental questionnaire such as aviation or finances may be included as well.
3.2 The provision usually would state that the ceding company’s standard underwriting guidelines would apply. Reference to the particular underwriting manual used may be included.
3.3 The provision would require the reinsurer's consent in writing to any material changes. A specific time limit for providing consent should be included. The ceding company and the reinsurer should agree on a process for obtaining consent from the reinsurer. For example, if the reinsurer does not respond within a certain time period, then the ceding company will assume reinsurer consent. Or, if the reinsurer does not respond within a certain time period, then the ceding company is required to follow-up and that non-response does not imply consent by the reinsurer.
General Elements. 3.1 A statement of when and upon what basis interest will be calculated for amounts due on the date the payment becomes due, except as specified elsewhere in the agreement.
