What is Directors and Officers Insurance?

Directors and officers liability Insurance (often called "D&O") is liability insurance payable as reimbursement for losses or advancement of defense costs in the event an insured suffers such a loss as a result of a legal action brought for alleged wrongful acts in their capacity as preschool board directors and officers.

What is General Liability Insurance?

General Liability Insurance covers a broad spectrum of possible legal suits schools might face. It covers such things as property damage and personal injuries incurred on school grounds, on field trips, or at fundraising events.

General Liability Insurance also includes automobile liability. However, since law requires all drivers to have insurance, this policy is secondary, and only activated after the driver's limits are exceeded. Note that paid staff members are never covered as drivers.

Any parent who drives a carpool on behalf of the school, must have proof of insurance filed with the school. The Directors must make visual inspections of all vehicles.

General Liability Insurance also covers fundraising events that are within a reasonable scope of a parent participation nursery school’s purpose.

The Insurance office (ISO), the governing body of all insurance companies, recommends "broad form coverage." This CCPPNS endorsed plan is the broadest possible coverage available, covering a host of things from incidental medical malpractice, to accidents in non-owned vehicles.

What is Property Insurance?

Property Insurance (Building and Personal Property Insurance) provides coverage for direct physical loss or damage to the covered property. Building Coverage (insurance for real estate property) covers partial or complete damage of building(s). If your school owns its building, it should have building coverage.

Personal Property Insurance (contents) covers any and all property located in or on your school site, within 1000 feet of your building, including furniture, fixtures, machinery, and equipment (e.g. computers and photocopiers), personal property owned by an individual used in connection with the school, labor, materials or services furnished or arranged by you, and tenant improvements and betterments.

Note that this coverage (including fire and theft) is all at Special Form Replacement Cost.

What is Student Accident Insurance?

This covers a student if they have an accident at a school function (while at school or on a field trip). It covers any student for up to $500,000. (Note that this is a secondary medical plan; it will not pay benefits for personal insurance’s covered expenses, until the family's insurance is exhausted.) 

What is Worker's Compensation Insurance?

By law, every school is required to protect its teachers and director with workers' compensation insurance. This insurance covers any employee of your school who may get hurt while on the job. Presently, the best Worker Compensation rates are available through the two different programs we have available through our office. Please give us a call for a competitive quote.
