Reminder for parents/guardians: Student Accident Insurance
Parents/guardians are responsible for expenses related to student injuries on school premises during school activities. Accidents can happen and the costs involved might not be fully covered by Provincial Health Care or employer group insurance plans. The Upper Grand District School Board is empowered under the Education Act to offer Accident and Life Insurance for students.
Information will be sent home with respect to Student Accident Insurance offered by Old Republic Insurance Company of Canada. You should receive:
- An introduction letter from the Director of Education to parents/guardians
- A brochure about Student Accident Insurance
Old Republic offers a variety of options, including family rates and multi-year plans, at affordable prices. The cost must be paid by parents/guardians. Insurance can be purchased online at www.insuremykids.com or by calling Old Republic toll free at 1-800-463-KIDS (5437). If you have questions, please contact Old Republic directly at the website or phone number listed here. For today’s active children, Student Accident Insurance is valuable.
