Other Insurance

Property Insurance:

Risk Management manages a broad and complex blanket of property insurance coverage of all 60 schools and support facilities, which have an insured value of over $711 million.

Unemployment Insurance Program:

Includes the administration of all unemployment claims through a third-party contract with TALX Employer Services; transmittal of all information related to claims; liaison between supervisors and the claims adjuster; and attendance at dispute hearings before the Texas Workforce Commission.

Liability Coverage:

Public school districts are immune for bodily injury to students and the public (except for limited liability for negligent operation and use of a motorized vehicle) as provided in the Texas Tort Claims Act § 101.021 and §101.051.

Because some parents or guardians may not have medical coverage for their children, the district offers a low-cost student accident insurance coverage plan through Bene-Marc, Inc. Enrollment forms are available through the campus secretary.
