Dear Parents/Guardians,

Because medical costs can be expensive, Stevens Point Area School District does provide families the opportunity to purchase student accident insurance for their student through Student Assurance Services, Inc.

This supplemental policy would assist with your out-of-pocket medical expenses (i.e., deductible) should your student sustain an accidental injury while coverage is in effect. Also, if you do not have any insurance on your student, this would be primary for accidental injuries. There is a variety of coverage options, and premiums are a one-time payment for the school year. Parents / Guardians can enroll students at any time during the policy period.

Please review the short video link below and the attached forms regarding student accident insurance.

Information is available on the District Website. It can be found under either Departments > Business Services > Student Accident Insurance or Family Resources > Key Information for Families > Student Accident Insurance.

Families may enroll online at www.sas-mn.com.

If you have any questions about this coverage, please contact Student Assurance Services directly at (800) 328-2739.
