Employee health insurance could rise 7% or more for 2027

What happened

The October 26, 2026 agenda lists approving a 2027 health insurance bid. The bid table shows an Aspirus renewal of about $2.31 million, up 7% from about $2.16 million, a state plan about 36% higher, and other carriers from 1.8% to 2.25% higher.

Why it matters to families

Health insurance is one of the district's biggest yearly costs and affects staff pay and the budget.

The evidence

The bid comparison lists the carriers and percent changes; the vote is not in the collected files.
