ACCIDENT INSURANCE
Parents may purchase voluntary K-12 student accident insurance through Bollinger Speciality Group. Student Accident Insurance helps ease those concerns by providing benefits for injuries that occur during school hours and or school-sponsored and supervised activities (i.e., athletics, gym class, playground, field trips, JROTC, etc.). With the increasing trend of high deductible plans, and more of the cost share shifting to the insured, Student Accident Coverage has become an even greater tool to bridge the coverage gaps that are inherent in most insurance plans.

The treat will be distributed by your child during their school lunch time. However, if you wish to provide a snack, it is recommended that you contact the Food Service Department to purchase birthday treat items, which can be delivered to the classroom on the day you choose.
