STUDENT ACCIDENT INSURANCE
Dear Parents and Students:
Your school safety is a top priority. Sometimes accidents happen. As a public service for your community, your school has negotiated a low cost student accident insurance plan for your consideration. Public schools are not responsible for accidents on public school grounds and not responsible for insurance for students. It is the responsibility of the parents to have insurance coverage for their families. Here is a brief summary of the insurance plans you can elect to purchase for your public school students. These premiums are one time per school year.
Please read the Summary of Insurance for more complete policy terms, provisions and exclusions before you make your purchase.
