About SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union
SchoolsFirst FCU is a not-for-profit organization rooted in the credit union philosophy of "People Helping People," and built on traditional values of commitment to service, respect for the individual, and fiscal responsibility. We hold ourselves to the highest standard of integrity, professional ethics, cooperation, and team spirit.
As a financial cooperative, our Members share ownership of their credit union, and have democratic control (one Member, one vote), electing from their midst a volunteer Board of Directors. All excess earnings are passed along to our Members through competitive rates, expanded products and services, and lower fees.
