📢 New Safety & Convenience Tool for Families: Raptor Safe App

We’re excited to share a simple way to make your visits to our school faster and more secure! Parents and guardians are encouraged to download the Raptor Safe App, which allows you to create a Raptor Passport ahead of time. This will help expedite the sign-in process when attending school events or visiting campus.

📲 Download the app here:

⭐ Important for Upcoming Events:
During special events such as Artie Parties, Awards Ceremonies, and End-of-Year Celebrations, we will have a “Fast Track” line at the front entrance for visitors who have a Raptor Safe QR code ready.

➡️ Visitors without a Raptor Passport will need to:
  • Present a government-issued photo ID
  • Go to the front office
  • Wait in line to use one of our verification computers
🚫 Please note: We will not have a paper sign-in sheet. All visitors must use the Raptor system, as safety is our utmost concern.

Once you download the app, please follow the attached directions to set up your Raptor Passport before your next visit.

Thank you for helping us keep our school safe while making check-ins quicker and easier for everyone!

If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to Mrs. Eller on ParentSquare or by email at ashley.eller@cabarrus.k12.nc.us
