If your child is not covered by any health insurance plan please review the CHIP flyer and contact CHIP at CHIPcoversPAkids.com or 1-800-986-KIDS for information on the Blue Chip Program for un-insured children, birth to 18 years.
Each year our school offers a very reasonably priced K-12 Voluntary Student Insurance plan which will protect students and parents from financial burdens, which might be created by an accident in school. It will pay the medical bills within the limit outlined in the policy.
