Accidents & Insurance

ACCIDENTS:

If a student is injured at school the supervising teacher will determine if they need to go to the office for care. An accident report will be filled out for all significant injuries, to be determined by office personnel, and it will be kept in the student’s medical file. As part of that report, a parent will be notified of the injury. If the injury is beyond simple first aid, 911 will be called immediately.

ACCIDENT INSURANCE:

All students have accident insurance coverage while at school or participating in a school sponsored activity. This is a secondary coverage. This means parents must first submit any medical expenses through their own insurance plan. The school insurance will only cover expenses not covered by the parents’ insurance. Claim forms can be obtained in the office. Once the form is completed, the parent will file the claim with the student accident insurance company.
