Code No. 507.6
STUDENT INSURANCE
Students participating in intramural or extracurricular athletics shall be required to have health and accident insurance. The student shall bring written proof of insurance or participate in the health and accident insurance program selected by the school district.
Students, whether they are or are not participating in intramural or extracurricular athletics, shall 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 shall be 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.
Whenever a student is injured while under the supervision of an employee, the employee will file an accident report with the school nurse and the principal's office within twenty-four hours.
