Is your student using an instrument belonging to NCSA?  Is it insured?
If you haven’t purchased insurance it’s still an excellent idea to purchase it at this point in the year.  Accidents can happen any time!  Don’t get stuck paying hundreds of dollars for a broken instrument when you could simply have this affordable insurance. Get insurance now so coverage will be in place to take advantage of the low cost summer instrument rentals from NCSA.  Policies are for a 12 month period from the start of coverage so purchasing or renewing now will keep you covered next year as well.
To purchase or renew insurance go to the Anderson Group web site: https://www.anderson-group.com/econ/
Questions?  Call Jody at 273-7736 ext. 204
