Re: Protecting against liability

We have forms that are signed, we have a formal training program for every power tool taught by the 'shop teacher', and there must be a teacher* present at all times. We are a school team.

*Some mentors are approved by the Board of Ed as Substitutes. Even though we never want to sub - we have other jobs we need to attend to - we are then school employees, not just on paper but in fact. And covered by their liability insurance.

If I had any personal liability, I wouldn't volunteer. It's a valuable program, but not worth my entire life and estate.
