Updated Visitor Protocols

Hi Families,


In an effort to ensure the security of our campus and safety of our students and staff, we have adopted a new technology called "Raptor". Providence Hall staff have already been trained on using the backend of this software which enables better communication and human accounting during an emergency or drill. The "front end" of Raptor is called "VisitorSafe".


VisitorSafe is a new way for visitors and volunteers to check in when the come onto campus through the main office. All visitors need is a valid Driver's License or other State ID. That ID is scanned and run through a system, then, if all is well, a sticker badge is printed with the visitors name and photo for the visitor to wear as they are on campus.


The following video demonstrates how this will work (note: not all of the functions of VisitorSafe in this video will be implemented by PHES).

Raptor VisitorSafe
Note - currently at PHES you will use the camera on the BACK of the iPad to scan your ID.


To make your visit even easier, download the "RaptorSafe" app and follow the steps to obtain your "Raptor Passport" within the app.

Estimadas familias:


Con el fin de garantizar la seguridad de nuestro campus y la protección de nuestros estudiantes y personal, hemos implementado una nueva tecnología llamada "Raptor". El personal de Providence Hall ya ha recibido capacitación sobre el uso de la interfaz de este software, que permite una mejor comunicación y control de asistencia durante una emergencia o simulacro. La interfaz para visitantes de Raptor se llama "VisitorSafe".


VisitorSafe es un nuevo sistema para que los visitantes y voluntarios se registren al ingresar al campus a través de la oficina principal. Solo necesitan una licencia de conducir o una identificación estatal válida. Esta identificación se escanea y se verifica en el sistema; si todo está correcto, se imprime una credencial adhesiva con el nombre y la foto del visitante, que deberá llevar puesta mientras se encuentre en el campus.


El siguiente video muestra cómo funciona este sistema (tenga en cuenta que no todas las funciones de VisitorSafe que se muestran en el video serán implementadas por PHES).


Nota: Actualmente, en PHES deberá usar la cámara trasera del iPad para escanear su identificación.


Para que su visita sea aún más sencilla, descargue la aplicación "RaptorSafe" y siga los pasos para obtener su "Raptor Passport" dentro de la aplicación.

The Raptor Safe app is a comprehensive solution designed to enhance safety, streamline processes, and improve communication within school communities.

Students have been asking the question can I bring my own recess equipment from home? The answer is no. We ask that students leave all their footballs, soccer balls, wall balls, jump ropes, etc at home. But great news we have recess equipment for each grade level. Each grade level has their own recess cart that goes out at their recess time. However as you can imagine some items get lost over time. If you would like to purchase items to help refill our recess carts we would appreciate it. Thanks

Last year, Providence Hall students had over $6,000 in unpaid lunch balances. Every family’s journey is unique, but together we can make a big difference! Your donation—no matter the size—will go directly toward reducing student lunch debt across all three schools. Help us make sure every Patriot has a healthy meal and the energy to learn and succeed. Join our No-Fuss Fundraiser and help support our students. Every dollar fills a tray and fuels a mind! Click on the photo above or on this link https://sfnd.io/qnjw5 to make a donation. Thank you.
