Nurse's Notes

MedicationA few things to remember:

  1. Make sure your child gets a good nights sleep
  2. Your child needs to eat something every morning to prevent "tummy aches" at school
  3. If your child has had a fever, he/she must be fever free for 24 hours before returning to school
  4. Please feel free to contact me about any concerns I need to be aware of in regards to your child. You may call me at 794-7273 x126 or e-mail me at: tdennis@nmacademy.net

Student Accident Coverage for your child

A school's student accident coverage is designed to supplement a parent's existing medical coverage to help fill in insurance gaps and deductibles when accidents occur.

A message from the Provider and Insurance Carrier

Insurance coverage for "school time" accidental injuries for your child has been purchased through Educator Resources, a national firm that specializes in meeting the needs of private schools, and is underwritten by Markel Insurance Company.

Injuries that occur on school premises and during school sponsored activities are covered, along with school-provided travel to and from school or school sponsored events. The coverage provided by this policy is "excess", or in other words, secondary to your existing medical coverage. There is no deductible under this policy.

Treatment or services from the following types of providers are included under the policy: physician; hospital; nurse; x-ray; operating room; anesthesia; laboratory; ambulance; ambulatory medical center; prescription medicines; therapeutic services or supplies; and home care expenses.

Should your child ever become accidentally injured at school, a claim form is available from your school administrator. Both the school and the parent or guardian must complete their portion of the form.

A message from NMA:

Dear Parents:

Your child is covered under the student accident insurance described above. Should your child ever become accidentally injured at school, a claim form is available from the school office. If you have any questions, you may call the school office at 794-7273.
