560 - Student Insurance

Students participating in intramural or extracurricular athletics shall be required to have health and accident insurance.  Students, whether they are or are not participating in intramural or extracurricular athletics, will have the opportunity to participate in the health and accident insurance plan selected by the school district.

The Superintendent, in consultation with the business manager, shall select the insurance plan after receiving quotes from competing companies. 

The cost of the health and accident insurance program is borne by the student.  Participation in the insurance health and accident plan is not a contract with the school district, but rather, a contract between the insurance company and the student.

Whenever a student is injured while under the supervision of a member of the school district staff, the faculty member will file an accident report with the school nurse and the principal's office.
