THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS FOR THE

2026-2027 SCHOOL YEAR

Dear Parents and Students:

Your school safety is a top priority. Sometimes accidents happen. As a public service for your community, your school has negotiated a low cost student accident insurance plan for your consideration. Public schools are not responsible for accidents on public school grounds and not responsible for insurance for students. It is the responsibility of the parents to have insurance coverage for their families. Here is a brief summary of the insurance plans you can elect to purchase for your public school students. These premiums are one time per school year. Please read a Summary of Insurance for more complete policy terms, provisions and exclusions before you make your purchase.

COVERAGE EFFECTIVE AND TERMINATION DATES 

Coverage under the Student Accident Insurance School Time Plan or 24 Hour Plan becomes effective on the later of the following dates: 1) At 12:01 A.M. (EST.) on the first day of scheduled school classes for the regular school term.  Or, 2) at 11:59 P.M. (EST.) on the date the premium is paid or received by Kidguard Insurance agency office.  The School Time Plan will terminate on the last day of school. The 24 Hour Plans terminate on the last day of summer in August, 2027 or the first day of school for the new 2027 fall school term, whichever is first. Students may enroll anytime but there are no discounts for late enrollees.

Interscholastic Sports coverage terminates after the last official FHSAA sanctioned public school game for the season or the date the athlete becomes ineligible for the policy.  Coverage will continue for sports during the summer if the sports premium is paid and if the sports activity is scheduled, sponsored and funded by the school district.  Private camps, camps run by coaches or private leagues and summer 7 on 7 leagues are not covered.  Please note Football is not covered under School Time or 24 Hour Plans unless the additional football premium is paid.
