It has been a wonderful week of learning, and it’s inspiring to see students growing in confidence as they recognize their own skills and abilities.

Each year a Student Accident Insurance Plan is made available to all students on a voluntary basis. The plan provides protection for dental damage due to accidents, fracture benefits and other important coverage, which are not covered under the Provincial Health Plan. Some parents may have dental plan coverage through their workplace but many of these plans are limited in one way or another, while this accident coverage is not. You should compare plans to make sure you have the coverage you need or desire.In making this plan available, the Board wishes to make its position clear in the matter of insurance. Under the Education Act, the Board is not permitted to provide insurance coverage for accidents to pupils, therefore, the Board recommends consideration of this plan to any parent who wishes to obtain this kind of insurance. Although the policy has all the advantages of a group plan, it is essentially a direct contract between the parent and the insurance company.A family plan is also available for three or more students which permits the enrolment of students in the family who are attending schools outside the jurisdiction of this Board as long as at least one child in the family is attending a school within the Limestone District School Board.If you wish to subscribe to this insurance, you may do so by completing the form handed out to students the first week of school and mailing it directly to Reliable Life Insurance Company in the stamped envelope provided. Or, for your convenience, you may purchase directly online at <a href="https://insuremykids.com/" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link">www.insuremykids.com.</a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><hr></a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><img src="/images/8da2fba9-5e33-4313-86f2-2822afc47153" alt="SAC" width="194" height="178" style="width:194px;height:178px;display:inline-block"></a>Bath School Advisory CouncilOur fabulous parent council is looking for new members!

The wait time for obtaining a CPIC (background check with vulnerable sector screening) can be lengthy. As such, if you think you would be willing to assist with a trip or school event in the future, please consider obtaining a CPIC with vulnerable sector screening completed, beforehand.<a href="https://www.opp.ca/index.php?id=147&lng=en" rel="nofollow noreferrer" class="editor-link">Link to OPP Criminal Background Checks</a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><hr></a><h3 class="editor-heading-h3" dir="ltr"><img src="/images/304d9c00-8dec-4ea7-8b9f-bc3b1b4b7f74" alt="self identify" width="194" height="157" style="width:194px;height:157px;display:inline-block;float:left">Indigenous Student Leadership Team</h3> Liv Rondeau and Rae McDonald will be coming to work with the Indigenous Student Leadership Team (Gr. 3-8) on the following dates from 9:30 - 11:30: September 26th, October 30th, November 28th, December 19th, January 27, February 27th, March 27th, April 24th, May 28th, June 19th They will be working on a mural to showcase the importance of reconciliation and indigenous ways of knowing, as well year-long land-based programing.

Each year a Student Accident Insurance Plan is made available to all students on a voluntary basis. The plan provides protection for dental damage due to accidents, fracture benefits and other important coverage, which are not covered under the Provincial Health Plan. Some parents may have dental plan coverage through their workplace but many of these plans are limited in one way or another, while this accident coverage is not. You should compare plans to make sure you have the coverage you need or desire.In making this plan available, the Board wishes to make its position clear in the matter of insurance. Under the Education Act, the Board is not permitted to provide insurance coverage for accidents to pupils, therefore, the Board recommends consideration of this plan to any parent who wishes to obtain this kind of insurance. Although the policy has all the advantages of a group plan, it is essentially a direct contract between the parent and the insurance company.A family plan is also available for three or more students which permits the enrolment of students in the family who are attending schools outside the jurisdiction of this Board as long as at least one child in the family is attending a school within the Limestone District School Board.If you wish to subscribe to this insurance, you may do so by completing the form handed out to students the first week of school and mailing it directly to Reliable Life Insurance Company in the stamped envelope provided. Or, for your convenience, you may purchase directly online at <a href="https://insuremykids.com/" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link">www.insuremykids.com.</a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><hr></a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><img src="/images/8da2fba9-5e33-4313-86f2-2822afc47153" alt="SAC" width="194" height="178" style="width:194px;height:178px;display:inline-block"></a>Bath School Advisory CouncilOur fabulous parent council is looking for new members!

Each year a Student Accident Insurance Plan is made available to all students on a voluntary basis. The plan provides protection for dental damage due to accidents, fracture benefits and other important coverage, which are not covered under the Provincial Health Plan. Some parents may have dental plan coverage through their workplace but many of these plans are limited in one way or another, while this accident coverage is not. You should compare plans to make sure you have the coverage you need or desire.In making this plan available, the Board wishes to make its position clear in the matter of insurance. Under the Education Act, the Board is not permitted to provide insurance coverage for accidents to pupils, therefore, the Board recommends consideration of this plan to any parent who wishes to obtain this kind of insurance. Although the policy has all the advantages of a group plan, it is essentially a direct contract between the parent and the insurance company.A family plan is also available for three or more students which permits the enrolment of students in the family who are attending schools outside the jurisdiction of this Board as long as at least one child in the family is attending a school within the Limestone District School Board.If you wish to subscribe to this insurance, you may do so by completing the form handed out to students the first week of school and mailing it directly to Reliable Life Insurance Company in the stamped envelope provided. Or, for your convenience, you may purchase directly online at <a href="https://insuremykids.com/" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link">www.insuremykids.com.</a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><hr></a><a href="about:blank" rel="noreferrer" class="editor-link"><img src="/images/8da2fba9-5e33-4313-86f2-2822afc47153" alt="SAC" width="194" height="178" style="width:194px;height:178px;display:inline-block"></a>Bath School Advisory CouncilOur fabulous parent council is looking for new members!
