STUDENTS
507.6 - STUDENT INSURANCE
New: The district will provide all students in grades PK-12 with catastrophic insurance coverage while at school, and while participating in any school-sponsored event. Participation in the accident insurance plan is not a contract with the school district, but rather, a contract between the insurance company and the student.
It is the recommendation of the Board of Directors that all students be covered by insurance (health and accident insurance).
NOTE: Although it is a recommended practice, it is within the board's discretion to determine whether it wants to require student athletes to have insurance.
Legal Reference: Iowa Code § 279.8 (1995).
