[RPPTL LandTen] Tenant's Liability Insurance

[brenda at ezellfirmpa.com]

I represent a client that operates a public charter school that wishes to lease real property from a church.  They are leasing a portion of a building and the surrounding property (including playground, parking areas, etc.)  The tenant has to provide liability insurance naming the county school board as an additional insured.  The problem is this:

The church has another building on the same property that it leases to a private school.  Additionally, the church will retain the use of one of the offices in the building that my client tenant is leasing.  My concern is the liability issues my client faces with respect to the other students/church members who are using the playground, property, etc.  I am concerned that simple indemnification provisions will not be effective to protect the tenant from potential liability since it is technically a "public" school.  I would like the landlord to provide insurance naming the school board as an additional insured, but this may be overreaching.

Has anyone dealt with a situation like this?  If so, please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks.
