As is usually the case, medical insurance rates are going up in the Deer Valley Unified School District for the 2024-25 school year.
During the Feb. 13 DVUSD governing board meeting Jim Migliorino, the district’s deputy superintendent of fiscal and business services, laid out a proposal to pay for most of this increase through reserve funding.
The 2024-25 plan recommendation is to cover most of the 6.97% increase in renewal rate, which works out to $1.8 million, by DVUSD expensing $1.55 million from its reserves held with the Valley Schools Employee Benefit Group.
