Compass Credit Union is excited to offer the Bank at School Program for Oswego City School District and Fulton City School District students. This program provides real-world, hands-on banking experiences to students at any grade level and helps them understand the benefits of saving money. We hope you will participate!
Here’s how it works:
Compass will open a FREE ACCOUNT (worth $5!) for your child to participate in Bank at School.
Just fill out the interest form at the link below and return it by mail to Compass Federal Credit Union’s main office at 131 George St., Oswego – or bring to your student’s teacher.
You will then receive an account packet in the mail with simple instructions from Compass.
You will need to return this packet to any Compass office in order to participate.
Important! If your child already has an open account at Compass Credit Union, please return the below interest form fully completed and checkmark the box that reads - "Already a Youth Member." Doing this will ensure your child is added to the program.
Compass will set up a table on site in each school based on the schedule below. Your child will receive a take-home reminder before every Bank at School session. On Bank Day, your child can bring their deposit to the table, where they will sign a receipt and pick out a small prize. We recommend putting your child’s deposit in an envelope or baggie with their name on it and labeling it “Bank at School.”
In addition to their deposit receipts, students will receive a quarterly statement in the mail. You can also sign up for online banking and eStatements. Every deposit also gives your child a chance to win a variety of year-end prizes, including gift cards, ice cream coupons and more. We will also have a grand prize where the winner gets to spend one minute inside our inflatable cash vault to grab as much money as they can as it flies around them!
