Summary: The district received the renewal from SELF for the 2023-24 school year in the amount of $343,508, with a final cost of $217,529 after a return of contributions and payroll audit adjustments. This represents a 20.7% decrease over the 2022-23 premium. The decrease is due to a return of member contributions totaling $123,337, a return of $2,642 from the audit of the 2021-2022 district payroll, and a reduction in our member percentage in the pool (3.6875% vs 3.9439%).
