Policy:
Background The district is a member of the Collective Liability Insurance Cooperative (CLIC) which is made up of 193 Illinois school districts. The cooperative offers a comprehensive insurance package which includes property, excess property, general liability, excess liability, auto liability and physical damage, EDP, crime, as well as school board legal liability. The pool also covers student accident, boiler and machinery, pollution coverage, identity theft coverage and a supplementary fiduciary liability coverage.

In June of 2024, the Board of Education approved the insurance renewal with CLIC in the total amount of $754,011. In addition, a fiduciary policy, which provides coverage against liability claims related to employee benefit plans that are managed or administered by CUSD 200, was purchased at a cost of $2,200. The policy period for all of the above was July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024.
