By K.D. MICHAELS, Staff Writer The Branson School District received a substantial dividend check recently, as a result of their hard work. Presented by Ollis/Akers/Arney Insurance and Business Advisors, the insurance safety dividend check for $25,722, was earned through safety protocols that were put in place and resulted in lower than expected insurance claims. “The school district has a pretty robust safety program in place,” explained John Akers of Ollis/ Akers/Arney. “We are presenting them with a dividend check from their work comp carrier. First of all, they have to put in place all of the safety measures. Secondly, they have to have good performance. So, between the two, they had a good year last year, in 2021. This check is a dividend for their hard work.”
