Back to school season has arrived. After an uncertain 2020, many school districts are headed back to in-person learning and this year\u2019s back-to-school season feels especially nostalgic. If you\u2019re getting your young children or even older teens ready to get back to school, there\u2019s more than book bags and new pencils to think about. It\u2019s important to also consider insurance coverages that can keep you all protected as we move into the 2021\/2022 academic year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Any college-aged students living off-campus should have renter\u2019s insurance. Even if the landlord already has an insurance policy, that will only cover the dwelling, not personal possessions or liability. With renters insurance you\u2019ll have protection in case a fire or other disaster occurs, it will cover items that are lost or stolen including laptops!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking of pricey electronics, this is also a great time to\nreview your homeowner\u2019s policy. Some may offer coverage for property owned by\nan insured \u2013 such as a student\u2019s property they have with them at the dorm if the\ndamage that occurs is caused by a covered peril. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have a student driver this year, be sure to ask about\ndiscounts that apply. Driver\u2019s aged 16-24 can qualify for things like Good\nStudent discounts if they are students and have a 3.0 or better grade point\naverage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
