  2. Reduce or eliminate the risk;
  3. Identify risk areas to be assumed by the district through the normal operating expenses (self- insurance);
  1. Transfer the risk to insurance companies within the financial resources of the district;
  2. Meet all applicable laws or statutes for school district coverage.
