(KMZA)--The Nemaha Central Board of Education this week approved a proposal for the district’s insurance coverage for 2014-2015.
Jeff Kidd with SBS Insurance Agency met with the board to review the district’s insurance coverage and updated rates. The board approved the updated coverage including the data compromise coverage for a total of $128,149. The insurance package includes buildings, equipment, vehicles, liability, and workers compensation. Due to the deletion of the B&B property, the premium is nearly $23,000 less than last year.
The board also approved a health insurance plan for district employees with Blue Cross/Blue Shield beginning October 1st of this year. The district is a member of the Kansas Education Insurance Trust and is required to pay the employee only, low option. That rate increased 4.1% to $425 per month.
The board approved fees for next school year. The enrollment fee for 3rd-5th grades will increase $15 to $45, while the enrollment fee for 6th through 12th grades will decrease from $40 to $20. The fee for kindergarten through 2nd grade will remain the same at $30. Students in grades 6-12 will have an additional $40.00 technology fee. Also lunch prices will increase 10 cents.
Following an executive session, the approved raises for classified, administrative and other staff for next year. The average percentage will be the same as the teacher package which was approved in May, 3.38%.
The board will hold a special meeting on June 25th at 7 in the evening to close out fiscal year business.
