Accidents happen! Will you be covered?

Did you know the Surrey School District does not insure expenses for student injuries that happen on school grounds or during school activities?

The Medical Services Plan (MSP) limits amounts paid and does not cover some charges. Injury-related costs not covered or limited under MSP or group insurance plans may include dental treatment, eyewear, rental of crutches or wheelchairs, splints and casts, physiotherapy and private tutors.

Optional student accident insurance is available through private companies and interested parents are encouraged to research which plan best suits their family's needs.

For your convenience, Surrey Schools has made arrangements for families to voluntarily purchase accident insurance through the "insure my kids" accident program, underwritten by Old Republic Insurance Company of Canada.

Insurance premiums range from $13 to $33 per year, depending on the plan selected, and your child is covered all the time, not just while at school. A discounted premium is available for families with three or more children.
