Pooling resources provides schools with a more stable long-term insurance solution than purchasing from commercial carriers that may be competitive today and out of reach tomorrow. Our size and careful analysis of each risk allow us to offer stable, affordable rates. And our fair and predictable rate renewals are major reasons districts join SISC and stay for decades. This keeps millions of dollars in the classroom that would have otherwise been paid out in premiums. We’ve rewritten the rules of insurance coverage We’re not an insurance company. We’re a community of public schools structuring coverage to meet the unique needs of our members. Our position in the market has given us the flexibility to innovate in creative ways. Whether that’s collaborating with other pools to deliver a product or influencing negotiations between an insurance company and a provider network — we are all in. And we have been for 40 years. All SISC personnel are public school employees All Board Members are also public school employees and are elected by our membership. This ensures that SISC policies are in the best interest of schools. As a public entity, SISC doesn’t operate on profit margins. We are relentless about doing what’s best for our members.
