|
|
10.B. Consider and Approve the District's current Teacher Incentive Allotment Spending Plan as required.
|
|
10.C. Consider and Approve renewal of all TASB insurance policies covering Leakey ISD. This includes property, liability, auto, professional/HR, privacy & security, violence, workers' comp, and unemployment. Both the District’s appraised property values have increased, and the District's loss rate assigned by TASB (from $.22/100 to $.29/100), resulting in an overall increase of aprox. 32% in premiums. TASB’s rates were released to the District on Monday, May 13th. School districts, as well as businesses and property owners alike, are seeing similar increases in insurance costs. Some districts saw increases of as much as 40-60%. Due to the timing of the release of the premium notice and budget adoption timeline restraints, it is recommended that the District proceed with renewal of TASB for fiscal year 25; however, the district will release a Request for Proposal (RFP) document this year in order to solicit competitive bids in order to ensure the most suitable insurance coverage at the best value for the District.
|
|
10.D. Consider and Approve a Resolution to Update Signers on First State Bank of Uvalde bank accounts.
|
|
10.E. Consider and Approve delegating final authority to the Superintendent to exercise the option to cancel/opt-out of the Texas Schools Health Benefit Program for the 2024-2025 plan year and/or to enroll the District in an alternative plan, as applicable. The deadline to non-renew with TSHBP is June 15, 2024; plan renewal options and pricing were just received on Wednesday May 15, 2024. An independent insurance broker will be meeting with administrators in the first week of June to provide additional insurance options to review.
|
|
10.F. Consider and Approve a recommendation to renew catastrophic coverage only student insurance with The Brokerage Store. Claims history shows very little utilization of the comprehensive program. For individuals who are already carrying health insurance, this policy acts as a secondary policy with limited benefits. For those without traditional health insurance plans, many are covered by Medicaid. And for those not in either of the aforementioned categories, there is a voluntary option that is very affordable. See documents provided.
