Grand Ledge Public School Families,
Our School District has partnered with Student Assurance Services to give families a choice to purchase accident insurance for their children. If you choose to enroll, this coverage will provide financial assistance with your out-of-pocket medical expenses should your student sustain an accidental bodily injury. Grand Ledge Public Schools is not responsible for any accidental injuries that occur to students while under the school’s supervision or while participating in interscholastic sports.
We encourage all families to consider accident coverage for their children, especially before the child participates in any interscholastic sports or if your current primary health insurance has a high deductible, co-insurance clause, and/or limitations on medical benefits. However, this coverage is strictly voluntary! If you feel you have adequate health insurance coverage for your student or simply are not interested, you do not have to participate.
For more information or to view a brochure, visit GLcomets.net/StudentInsurance. The voluntary coverage is provided through Student Assurance Services, Inc. and is independent of Grand Ledge Public Schools. You can find more details about the program on that webpage, including an online enrollment option or a link to a paper enrollment form. Here is some information on the coverage options:
