More details to this question:
My son was injured playing on his school's football team. My insurance only covered half of the medical bill. The schools supplemental insurance paid 125.00. We have a balance remaining of 1100.00. Shouldn't the school have to pay this?

You probably signed a waiver when he was enrolled in football and e also assumed the risk of injury when he decided to participate in football. It's doubtful a court would require a school to pay the $ 1,100.
