Bank at School

Working with local schools to nurture the ethics of saving.

The Delaware Bank at School program teaches elementary & middle school students about financial management by providing real banking experience at their school. The program helps them learn to take charge of their money by learning to save and spend wisely. The program provides teachers with lessons highlighting the advantages of saving that correlate with the Delaware State Standards in Economics. Students at some schools may even get the opportunity to serve as bank tellers in the Bank at School Credit Union branch!

Bank at School Accounts

Students may open non-custodial edUFCU Share Savings Accounts. This account is opened in the student’s name only and is FREE to open. Parents will not be able to withdraw funds from this account. edUFCU member service representatives come to the school on the same day each week to accept deposits. Withdrawals may not be made at the school branches. Students may visit our main branch or Christiana HS branch location to make additional deposits and withdrawals.

Participating Schools

edUFCU is available to students through the Bank at School program in several area schools:

Also note, there is a edUFCU branch at Appoquinimink High School, Christiana High School and Middletown High School available to students and faculty to use for regular credit union accounts.
