INSURANCE  PROGRAMS /  RISK  MANAGEMENT

The Board has the responsibility to maintain an adequate property, casualty, and liability insurance program to protect the property of the District against fire, vandalism, and theft; to protect the Board members and employees against general liability resulting from the discharge of their duties; and to offer protection in case of injury for employees while acting in behalf of the school.  The Board may also authorize a voluntary insurance program for students and employees.

The responsibility of administering the total insurance program shall be delegated to the Superintendent, who will seek and consider input from the staff.  Underlying such administrative delegation, there will first be prepared, for review and approval, specifications for insurance coverage of various types so that the insurance may be placed by competitive bid.  Any recommended modification of these specifications will be brought before the Board for review and action.  The District will make every effort to obtain insurance at the most economical cost, consistent with required service.
