Dolphin Dollars Program and Book Swap at CLES

Chevy Chase Bank has teamed up with Centennial Lane Elementary to bring an exciting school banking program to your students. Through the “Dolphin Dollars” program, students will be exposed to the basics of banking and encouraged to actively participate by having their own savings account!!

The CLES Book Swap: Bring a gently used book from home and swap it with one from our large selection. There is no cost involved and your child can participate as often as they would like. The times and location are the same as Dolphin Dollars.

Initial Set-Up
To get our child’s account started, all you have to do is visit the local Chevy Chase Bank conveniently located at 9245 Baltimore National Pike (across from Chatham shopping center). We will also hold a table event during the various “Back to School Nights”, at Centennial Lane School, so accounts can be set up directly with a representative of the bank. Accounts can be opened with as little as $5. Also, there are no minimums and no service fees. These accounts are set up as CUSTODIAL, so be sure to bring your Drivers License and the student’s Social Security number. The student can make deposits at any time, but only the parent listed on the account can make withdrawals.

Deposits
The “In-school” Bank service times are every Friday from 8:33 to 8:45 in the cafeteria. The PTA facilitator is Karla Vea. The staff liaison is Mrs. Scheler. At any time, parents can transact on the account at any of the over 200 Chevy Chase Bank branches.

Please contact Karla Vea (email) or Mrs. Scheler or the branch at 410-465-2572 if you have any questions.
