N.J.S.A. 18A: 40 - 41.5 (2010) provides immunity from liability for school districts for the death or injury of a person due to the action or inaction of persons employed by or under
contract with a
youth sports team, provided there is an insurance
policy of not less than $ 50,000 per person per incident, and a statement of compliance with the school district or nonpublic school's
policies for the management of concussions and other head injuries.
A few bids came from outside groups that aren't charters, including
Youth Policy Institute, a social service nonprofit, and MLA Partner Schools, which manages two district high schools while honoring district union
contracts.
