Operations
Insurance renewal
Chuck Holden, chief operations officer, presented an overview of district insurance renewals that would go into
effect on Dec. 31, 2017 with School Board approval. Holden noted that property insurance, general liability,
auto liability and damage, and errors and omissions coverages have been reviewed by district consultants and
recommended for approval to provide best value for taxpayers. Holden recommended the district add cyber
liability coverage to provide broad protection for district and student data including extortion, network interrup-
tion, security and privacy liability, and numerous other coverages to protect against a breach of data. The School
Board will consider approval at a future meeting.
