Summary
The board unanimously approved renewal of the district's legal-liability (errors and omissions) insurance at $9,100 and general liability at $541 to avoid a lapse in coverage that took effect Feb. 1.
The Nashville School District Board of Education unanimously approved renewal of the district's legal-liability and general-liability insurance after administration said carrier changes made the new policy effective Feb. 1 and recommended renewal to avoid a lapse.
Mister Graham, Superintendent, told the board the district had been assured “we were still covered” while the carrier prepared paperwork and that the carriers made the new effective date February 1. He outlined the premiums: legal liability (errors and omissions) at $9,100 and general liability at $541 and said, “you can't afford not to have it.”
A board member moved to approve the errors-and-omissions/legal-liability and general-liability renewals as presented; another board member seconded. The motion passed 5–0.
Board members did not record additional debate on alternative carriers, coverage limits, or deductible levels during the public portion of the meeting. Administration described the coverage as important for legal-defense costs if the district faces litigation.
