About Us

SISC is a Joint Powers Authority administered by the Kern County Superintendent of Schools Office Christine Lizardi Frazier, Superintendent

Our Philosophy – “Schools Helping Schools”

  • 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. SISC provides a very cost
    effective rate environment which reflects its commitment to preventing
    losses and controlling costs. This keeps millions of dollars in the
    classroom that would have otherwise been paid out in premiums.
  • Our Boards of Directors are elected by member
    districts. All Board Members are employees of school districts. This ensures that SISC
    policies are set with the best interests of schools in mind.
  • All SISC administrative personnel are employees of
    the school system. We do not receive sales commissions. Our fiduciary
    responsibility is to our members…not a profit margin.

Our Ethics

  • SISC believes ethically responsible organizations serve not
    only their members but all stakeholders; employees, employers, providers,
    vendors and local communities.
  • SISC’s commitment is to demand standards of behavior which
    support professional practices. All decisions must take into account
    and reflect a concern for the interests of all stakeholders.

Our Goal

  • SISC strives to provide the best coverage and service to our
    members while keeping costs affordable and stable.
