Student Accident Insurance

What do you need to know about Student Accident Insurance?

Accidents Happen

Whether your child is returning to school or staying closer to home this fall, it’s important to remember accidents can and do happen. It is important for parents to note that School District No.48 does not insure expenses for student injuries that may occur on school grounds or during school activities. You are responsible for these expenses as a parent or guardian.

Optional Accident Insurance is Available 

Parents who would like to purchase accident insurance for their child are advised to choose an insurance provider. Several companies offer accident insurance and you must decide which plan suits your family’s individual needs the best. For your convenience, we have made an arrangement to offer student accident insurance through insuremykids accident program, underwritten by Old Republic Insurance Company of Canada.
