The Prairie State Insurance Cooperative (PSIC), based in Itasca, Ill., has appointed two new board members, growing the board from seven to nine members.
Dr. Julie Ann Fuchs, assistant superintendent for business at the Kaneland Community Unit School District #302, and Thomas Akers, superintendent at Cambridge Consolidated Unit School District #227, have accepted the two newly created positions with PSIC.
PSIC is a self-insurance risk management program administered by Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services Inc. It is a specialized insurance and risk management program for public school districts in North, Northwest, Central and Southern Illinois.
The board expansion was in line with the goals set out by the PSIC board once it reached the 100-district-member benchmark, which occurred in September 2011.
Dr. Fuchs has been responsible for business and operations at Kaneland CUSD #302 for the past three years and a PSIC member district since 2009.
Akers’ career spans 20 years in education as a principal in Rock Falls, Ill., and for the last five years as the superintendent of the Cambridge Consolidated Unit School District #227.
