Deshler Public Schools requires that all students in athletic programs have injury and accident insurance and encourages all students who are in classes at risk of personal injury or accident to have insurance coverage. Deshler Public Schools does not make recommendations nor handle the premiums or claims for any insurance company, agent, or carrier. Information about student insurance providers will be available in the school office or on school bulletin boards.
Also, any students who want to change their schedule IN PERSON (Google Form is the preferred method!) should attend New Student Registration on August 7th to drop/add classes if those currently listed in PowerSchool are not correct (these will not show up until after 7/12/24).

Insurance is as follows:
$15 for one student
$25 for two students
