Dear Parents/Guardians,
Student injuries at school, during school events, and extra-curricular athletics are not covered by the Board or its insurance company. While every precaution is taken to provide a safe learning environment, accidents can and do happen.
Due to recent injuries inOntarioduring school sporting events and field trips and the resulting legal claims, a risk exposure to school boards has been highlighted. It is essential that all those participating in out of school activities (for example, sports, and field trips) have adequate insurance for all instances of injury.
The Simcoe County District School Board has selected Reliable Life Insurance Company as an option for students/parents/guardians to consider with regards to purchasing student accident insurance coverage for the upcoming school year. Reliable Life offers a variety of plans and benefits at reasonable annual prices. Coverage can be purchased online at www.insuremykids.com
As part of our school package this fall there was an acknowledgement of student accident insurance form that was to be completed. As per Simcoe County District School Board memo 2011-2012:05 participation in extra curricular athletics or out-of-province/out-of-country field trips continues to require the purchase of this insurance, or a signed acknowledgement advising that the family has other coverage, providing the copy of coverage. There is no opportunity beginning this school year to opt out of either purchasing this coverage or proving that the participant has another means of providing this coverage.
