New Visitor Management SystemWe are excited to announce that our school is now using the new Raptor Visitor Management System (VMS). This upgrade is part of our school’s and FCPS’ ongoing commitment to enhancing school safety and streamlining the process for visitors at our school. The VMS ensures that no visitor is on the sex offender registry.
For most visitors, the user experience will be the same when you check-in at the front office.
But now there is also an app, which can make check-in’s even faster at school. Visitors who choose to download the RaptorSafe App and create a Raptor Passport can pre-verify their information before they get to school. The app will give you a QR code you can use when you check-in at school.
If you have questions or need assistance with the new system, please contact our front office. Thank you for your partnership in keeping our schools safe!
Spanish: Nuevo Sistema de Manejo de Visitantes a las Escuelas
Nos entusiasma anunciar que nuestras escuelas están ahora usando el nuevo sistema “Raptor Visitor Management System”, VMS. Esta actualización forma parte del compromiso que nuestras escuelas y FCPS mantienen con la mejora de la seguridad escolar y con la simplificación del proceso que deben seguir los visitantes a las escuelas. El sistema VMS garantiza que ningún visitante esté en el registro de delincuentes sexuales.
Para la mayoría de los visitantes, la experiencia como usuarios será la misma que ahora tienen cuando se anotan en la oficina principal de cualquier escuela.
Pero ahora contamos con una aplicación que puede hacer mucho más rápido el proceso de anotarse en la escuela. Aquellos visitantes que descarguen la aplicación RaptorSafe App y creen un “Pasaporte Raptor”, pueden verificar su información con antelación, antes de llegar a la escuela. Esta aplicación le dará un código QR que puede usar cuando se anote en la entrada de la escuela.
Si tiene preguntas, o necesita asistencia con el nuevo sistema, por favor contacte a nuestra oficina principal. ¡Gracias por su colaboración haciendo nuestras escuelas más seguras!
