  4. Student Accident Insurance – The Archdiocese of Baltimore, Division of Catholic Schools is pleased to once again offer a two tier student accident insurance plan for the school year 2019-2020. The plan includes a voluntary primary basic plan, which can be purchased by the parent/guardian of the student. The voluntary student accident plan can be purchased by any family with a student attending either an Archdiocesan school or an independent Catholic school within the Archdiocese, including pre-K students. This coverage is a very inexpensive benefit for school families.  If purchased by the family, the primary plan provides up to $25,000 in covered benefits for accidents. The details of this plan can be reviewed by looking through the attachment, “Brochure Student Accident. ”  There are various coverage options from which parents can select, but all are offered at a very low cost. Most beneficial about this coverage is that it has no deductible.  In order to simplify the purchasing process, parents have the option of submitting the application and payment directly to the company via regular mail, or they can go on line and complete the purchase of the coverage by visiting www.StudentInsurance-kk.com.
