Students will have the opportunity to participate in the health and accident insurance plan selected by the school district. 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.
It is recommended students participating in intramural or extracurricular athletics have health and accident insurance. The student shall bring written proof of insurance, participate in the health and accident insurance program selected by the school district, or parents shall sign a waiver.
Persons signing waivers shall be counseled by appropriate staff.
